We, the sisters of the Visitation of St. Louis, have come from seven different houses to live in a community whose primary focus for over 166 years has been prayer and the education of women in the Salesian tradition.

Historically, we have responded to circumstances. Today, we seek to mold our own future by incorporating our education and experiences into the contemporary culture so as to deepen our relationship with God and to contribute to the good of our neighbor.

We need courage to risk ongoing renewal as a faith community growing in trust in God, love of one another, and appreciation of our differences.

As a prayerful community bonded by love and forgiveness, we search for new life in our charism by living Jesus' compassion.
