Over time, our commitments have taken many forms. As a young Congregation, we committed ourselves to coming to the aid of abandoned or orphaned children to compensate for their lack of security, as when we welcomed several young Irish girls at the time of the Irish exodus during the Great Potato Famine.
Along with our work in schools, especially following the upheavals of the 1960’s, we took on — and continue to take on — work in catechesis, in spiritual or psycho-spiritual accompaniment, and in pastoral work in schools, parishes, and faith-based education centres. These commitments were and are often in response to various requests, especially from dioceses.
