Through our five dimensions of Spirituality, Education, Vocation, Community and Ministry, we become “Women Supporting Women, Reaching Out with Gospel Values” Theresian ministry challenges women to make their spiritual growth a priority. When we are grounded in our own faith and take precious time to nurture our spiritual life so that we can be truly self-aware and present to others. Our model of Theresian small faith communities creates sacred space where women can come together to support one another in their faith journey. In our meetings we come to know one another, celebrate our milestones together, share each another’s heartaches, challenge ourselves and our sisters. In Theresians, we grow together in faith, building our personal and communal relationships with God. Are you looking for a way to deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ?

In Community, we have a shared sisterhood; in Spirituality, we experience continued growth in knowing the Lord; in Vocation and in Ministry, we develop the rich experience of active fidelity as well as passive fidelity; and through Education, we become useful instruments for the work of God’s kingdom.
