ABOUT US		UP-COMING EVENTS
We are called to personally experience God's unconditional and merciful love, revealed in Jesus Christ. Inspired by this love, we live out a "Spirituality of the Heart", a way of looking upon the compassionate Jesus of the Gospel, who loved us with a human heart. Our mission is to make this love known, especially among the suffering, the needy and those whose rights are disregarded. (Constitutions no. 7) More Photos		General Chapter 2008 We are called to a world that..... Novitiate in Manila, Philippines: On May 3, 2008, we established an MSC Novitiate in Manila, Philippines.

PRAYER LIFE		CELEBRATIONS
Our mission is nourished and sustained by our personal experience of God's compassion...' (Const. no. 54 ) This compassion when experienced, reflected upon and interiorly recognized through our own inner silence and gospel reflections, enables us to go forward into mission wherever we are - renewed, re-energized and sustained by a Presence of God... '... a power working within us that can do infinitely more than we can ever ask or imagine... (Eph. 3:16ff ) "Prayer becomes all-powerful when united with the sentiments of Jesus' heart, and when we imitate the example he gave us." - Fr. J.
