Today we are a small group of women inspired by the person of Jesus and the vision of Brigid of Kildare and Daniel Delany. We engage with the issues of our time.
The earth needs our urgent attention if this planet, as we know and cherish it today, is to survive. We have been entrusted with the earth, the water and the air; we have been asked to listen to, to care for, and respect the land and its peoples.
We will continue to engage in activities that open up opportunities for advancing the safety and dignity of refugees, displaced and homeless persons. As Brigidine Sisters we are challenged to be both bearers of the hospitality of God and bearers of a moral message for humanity.
(Celebrating the Sacred. Brigidine Congregational Forum, Melbourne 2001)
