Sister Disciples of the Divine Master
We are a
congregation of women religious and a branch of the Pauline
Family (10 different congregations), founded in the spirit of St.
Paul in 1924 by Fr. James Alberione, a master of the spiritual life,
and an apostle of the Media of Communications.
Women for today’s world, we are called by God to follow Jesus
the Divine Master who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Our life of contemplation flows into actions: we are women who want
to be like Jesus who went to the mountain top to pray, then came
down to work for the Kingdom of God.
Another gospel image of our spirituality is that of Martha and
Mary which gives priority to listening to the words of the Master
Jesus and this attitude of listening prolongs in service the love
with which Jesus has loved us to the end.
From our contemplative life flows the variety of activity of our
apostolic work. The principal activity of the Sister Disciple is
the Eucharistic Adoration; it has ecclesial and social dimensions
because we bring to Jesus in the Eucharist all the needs of humanity,
its joys, fears and sins. This prayerful activity is especially
directed towards those who work with the mass media that the Gospel
message may reach out to all.
Jesus, contemplated as living in the Priesthood, motivates us
top collaborate closely
With those called to Priestly ministry; having as our model the
Blessed Virgin who worked intimately alongside her son. In answer
to the growing needs of today, we pray for vocations, assist priests
particularly in their illness and in old age.
We have a specific role in the Liturgy, which is the source
and culmination of all the life of Christ. To help the laity become
more aware of the Liturgical Life, and to participate actively in
it, we work at the levels of formation, animation and catechesis,
music and intensive work in the various forms of art: sculpture,
pottery, design, embroidery, etc
All our work flows from our union with God which is nourished
by the celebration of the Eucharist and prolonged by adoration of
Blessed sacrament. We bring all peoples to the Lord of life.
Our one desire is to be living and active members of the Church
in order to be witness of Jesus, the Divine Master, Way, Truth
and Life.
