The Religious of the Virgin Mary Vocations 4.24

We, the Congregation of the Religious of the Virgin Mary, bearers of the legacy of Venerable Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo, courageously venture into new paths, and through our lives and ministry, contribute to the transformation of society.


We are a Papal congregation of a mixed life, aiming primarily at personal sanctification and perfection. Our secondary aim includes laboring for the sanctification and the salvation of others through Catholic education of youth and catechetical instruction in parishes, as well as fostering spiritual retreats among lay women, conducting dormitories, and taking care of the sick in hospitals. We commit ourselves to serve with humility and charity and to live out our contemplation-in-action. In the same manner, we live in the visible solidarity with the poor and promote justice and peace,the empowerment of youth and women, and the evangelization of families. We also blaze new trails in our ministries and collaborate with the lay in support of evangelization
