SISTERS, SERVANTS OF THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

Animated by the IHM Charism ... Embracing the Mission With Love, Creative Hope & Fidelity...A Legacy of Grace!

Greetings! So a new adjective has emerged - exhausterwhelmulated - the feeling of being exhausted, overwhelmed, and overstimulated! Can you sometimes identify with this unique contemporary describing word? I'm thinking of it as a trifecta of being on overload that longs for a powerful and on-demand remedy! Perhaps we can look to Jesus in the Eucharist as a ready, available and willing 24/7 first responder! We remember, we celebrate, we believe ... Praying that your own personal feelings of exhausterwhelmulated draw you to embrace in a new way the love poured out in Jesus' Presence in the Eucharist , sincerely, Sister Stephen Anne IHM

IHM CHARISM CONNECTION CREATIVE HOPE

The IHM Charism, our unique way of being present to God's people, is defined by three graces: love, creative hope and fidelity. We are always eager to share these graces with those around us in every circumstance! With our Charism grace of CREATIVE HOPE we place our confidence in God's Providence that what we think we can't do, we can accomplish by uniting our efforts to God's Providence! Creative hope gives us the spiritual energy to find a way when there seems to be no way. We don't settle for less when we are capable of much more; we don't settle for negativity or despair. Creative hope helps us to look to the future with fresh eyes and renewed vigor!  Learn more about the IHM Sisters here!

We don't go it alone! That's the true message of poor in spirit! Our efforts joined with God's grace - that's the real thing! IHM VIRTUE of the MONTH Poor in Spirit
