SSCC picpus "In Jesus we find everything"

"Make haste slowly; do nothing whatsoever without recollecting yourself a little. May the Spirit of God act in you in such a manner that you will never act except through Him."

Good Mother

"Cultivate fervor and Christian resignation; sustain humility. Heaven will be your reward."

Good Father

"We live our vocation and mission in community. Simplicity and the family spirit are the characteristics of our relationships within our international Congregation, which desires to be open to all people. Our community life gives witness to the Gospel and makes our announcement of redeeming love more convincing."
