In Community
We seek to live as a loving Christian community giving witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our life in community is structured to form and sustain the whole person through a balanced rhythm of prayer, work, study, meals, fellowship and recreation, silence and solitude, exercise, leisure and rest.
Daily Prayer
+Our Habit
The Maronite Servants’ habit consists of:
- A gray tunic and black scapular embroidered with a gold Rabbula Cross, an ancient symbol of Christianity found in a 6th century Syriac Gospel Book.
- The contrast of the cross on the black will also symbolize Christ’s light radiating through the darkness of our world bringing God's hope and mercy.
- The black used for the scapula and a black leather belt are symbolic of the traditional religious clothing in the Maronite tradition.
- Using a familiar wood of Lebanon, the sisters’ olivewood rosary will remind them of their intimate connection to the Mother of God.
