who we are
The Religious of the Sacred Heart (RSCJ) are an international congregation of Catholic women, serving in 45 countries. We celebrate our vocation today in a wide spectrum of ministries and settings. We live in small communities and share prayer, which supports us and challenges us to make choices for Justice and Peace in response to the Gospel. We share a spirit with all those who desire to make known God's love. It is this spirit that shapes our lives. We acknowledge that the action of the Spirit goes far beyond what we can see or even know, and we are continually enriched and challenged by it.
