Directional Statement 2021-25 – Notre Dame Sisters

Through our Provincial Assembly we Notre Dame Sisters create a directional statement that guides our ministry and prayer over the next four years. Read our statement below. We will be offering more reflections on various points in this statement soon.

*******

Grounded in the Gospel message of Jesus and grateful for God’s abundant empowering grace, we, the Notre Dame Sisters of Omaha, humbly and joyfully commit our lives and resources to:

  •       Deepen a contemplative spirituality that shapes our values and decisions
  •       Promote solidarity and justice for all, especially the marginalized and neglected
  •       Fulfill our history as a province with active and bold openness to God’s call in our lives

We do this by:

  •       Practicing prayerful discernment individually and as a province
  •       Fostering participative partnerships with others to transform systems of injustice
  •       Developing ways to sustain and celebrate our vision, mission, and legacy
