The Sisters of
Our Lady of Guadalupe and Saint Joseph were founded in December,
1976, in the Diocese of Gallup. Their spirit is contemplative in
action, that is reflected in their motto: A community of prayer
and service, in peace, joy and love. Their charism is based in
the unity and love asked by Our Lord Jesus in John 17, "That all
may be one as you and I are one, so the world may believe."
They serve
the poor and needy, assisting them in para legal, immigration
matters, in education: nursery school to universities,
parrochial and mission work, and orphanages. There is one house
in which perpetual adoration of the most Blessed Sacrament is
held. The chapel is open seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
A community
life is lived. Meditation, adoration of the most Blessed
Sacrament, the praying of the Rosary, and the Divine Office are
part of their spiritual practices.
