What We Do The Apostolic Sisters work to make sure that no one is left outside the circle of God’s compassionate and healing love through ministry. Our apostolic works include a variety of human services and social justice to those in need, with a particular focus on the needs of women and children and a keen awareness of the effects of the feminization of poverty throughout the world. We serve as: Community outreach workers Special education teachers Social workers Youth development workers Advocates for social and systemic change nurses administrators psychologists hospital chaplains prison ministers The Contemplative Sisters seek to bring the Good Shepherd’s liberating love to all God’s people through contemplative prayer, community life, silence, solitude, faithfulness to the gospel, and meditation on the Word of God. In solidarity with the poor, we support ourselves by: Making vestments Supplying altar breads to parishes Artistic works Creative computer work - designing graphics, cards and composing music.
