Mater Admirabilis
God's mercy and faithfulness shine forth in a world wounded by sin.
He has sent His beloved Son who became one of us, and gave up His life, to set us free, to make us a new creation and to gather together all things in Himself for the glory of His Father.
(Constitutions RSCJ - Religious of the Sacred Heart of Jesus #2)
By our charism, we are consecrated
to glorifying the heart of Jesus:
we answer His call to discover and reveal His love letting ourselves be transformed by His Spirit so as to live united and conformed to Him, and through our love and service to radiate the very love of His Heart.
(Constitutions RSCJ #4)
Mary, woman of faith among the People of God lives close to us, as she does to everything that radiates the life of her Son.
Our Society entrusts itself in a special way to her whose heart is united and conformed to that of Jesus, so that she may lead us to Him.
(Constitutions RSCJ #9)

This contemplative attitude permeates our whole being,
helping us to live ever more united to Christ
in our relationships, our tasks and our ministry;
it becomes a powerful force of conversion and transformation for mission.
In welcoming God's word
Mary gave Christ to the world.
In receiving the life of Jesus
we give ourselves with Him so that all may have life.
(Constitutions RSCJ #22)
