Welcome!

We invite you to walk with us in friendship, as we live out our mission to make known the goodness and kindness of the Savior.

Prayer Requests

Our Apostolate of Prayer Ministry is a precious gift and sacred trust to hold your special intentions in our hearts as we pray privately and in community.

Our Charism

Our charism as Sisters of the Divine Savior is to be rooted in Jesus, the Savior, as we share His Mission of worldwide evangelization with simplicity and trust in God.

Our Mission

The mission of the Sisters of the Divine Savior is to make known the goodness and kindness of Jesus, Savior of the world, and to foster an awareness of a loving God among peoples in whatever place and by whatever means the Spirit of God inspires.

As women of faith striving to be given over to our God and open to all peoples, we collaborate to promote justice and to improve quality of life in our world with a preferential option for the poor.

The Sisters of the Divine Savior live out our mission in many ways, often in collaboration with Salvatorian priests and brothers and Lay Salvatorian women and men. Get to know us by reading about our ministries and following our Salvatorian Sentiments blog. You can also read archived copies of our Salvatorian News that mails out twice a year.

Prayer Requests

Prayer is the most precious gift we can give to one another.

Letting Go Lent

Lord, you let go to become like us. Your self-emptying is our call this Lent. It is so easy to hold on, store up, grasp because being empty handed is a vulnerable place to be. It stretches our faith in your Providence. It calls us to believe in what we cannot see. Open our eyes to see that our empty hands can be full of grace. It can make us more like you!

This Lent, we pray for the courage to take these words to heart and to be free of all that slows our following of you. We ask for your grace to do this and depend on your help. Supported by all those engaged in letting go, we trust our efforts will move us to take hold of you more radically. This is our offering, as we stand ready to give you all we have. In your name, we want to let go this Lent.

Amen.
