Who we are
We are an international Religious Congregation of Catholic women who seek to proclaim with their lives, the joy and freedom of the Gospel in the spirit of St Francis and St Clare of Assisi, sharing the life of our brothers and sisters wherever we go.
We are at Graced Crossroads, a time of extraordinary change inviting us to ongoing transformation of our lives.
We remain committed to Becoming Christ.
We will continue on this journey together, nurturing each other both personally and communally.
It is vital that we each commit ourselves to:
- Ongoing communal discernment.
- Naming and acknowledging our loss and grief.
- Working towards forgiveness, reconciliation and healing.
- Sharing and offering our gifts.
- Embracing partnership in our Mission.
- Promoting the dignity of humanity and all creation.
We journey in hope and trust with:
Mary, who brought forth and accompanied Christ.
St Clare and St Francis who became one with Christ.
Mission
Our Mission is to be sister to all. By drawing near with compassion and simplicity, we make available to all the enjoyment of God’s love in everyday moments.
Projects
As our FMDM story unfolds in the context of our beautiful and broken Church and world, God invites us to read the signs of the times and respond to the needs of the day.
Safeguarding
Our Congregation places safeguarding at the heart of our ministry, community life, and service
