Who
are the Sister Disciples of the Divine Master?
Founded
in 1924 in Italy by Blessed James Alberione (1884 -1971) we form
part of the Pauline Family.
This is a family of priests, religious
and lay people whose mission is: ‘to live and give Jesus Master
to the world’.
We are a community born of the Eucharist, open to the newness of the
Spirit and inserted within our socio-ecclesial context.
In
religious profession we publicly assume the obligation of living
this Rule of Life in communion with our sisters
and to fulfil our mission at the service of the Eucharist, the
Priesthood and the Liturgy.
Our communities are characterized by a strong prayer life,
assiduous labour and reciprocal love, lived in joy, silence and habitual
recollection.
Our charism is lived out in missionary and multicultural communities of
which we have two in Ireland,
one community in Dublin and another in Athlone.
We are in the
five continents and in 31 nations where we have Chapels of Perpetual
Adoration.
There we are known as the ‘apostles of the Eucharist.’
Our prayer is for all people and we intercede for the media of
social communication and for priests.
This prayer for priests is
also expressed in our ministry of accompaniment of care and service
at various stages of their lives.
