NOTRE DAME SPIRITUALITY

"Our spirituality is apostolic in the tradition of St. Julie Billiart, whose unique experience of prayer and action, enabled her to find God’s presence everywhere and in a special way among the poor." Article 44 of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur Constitutions

 

Notre Dame Spirituality
Our Spirituality is a simple but profound belief that God is so very good. As Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, we share in an absolute trust in God’s active presence in all of life.

  • We seek to follow the way of simplicity, obedience and charity that St. Julie set forth for us. As a community, we share our resources and talents. Together we respond to local and world needs, especially the needs of poor women and children.

  • We are united by a common vision of the Gospel and a common call to follow Jesus.  As Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, Mary also holds a special place in our heart. In the words of St. Julie, we strive to grow "in the spirit of Mary, the virtue of Mary, the strength and power of Mary."

  • We strive to be women of prayer – both personal and communal. Prayer is the essence of our lives. It fosters and enriches our life of faith and mission. We reach out in support and companionship to others on their faith journey.

 

Spirituality Center
Under the direction of Sister Ruth Kettman, CSJ, the Notre Dame Spirituality Center is a ministry which continues the rich tradition of proclaiming the Goodness of God. People of all walks of life who desire a continued and deepened relationship with God are welcome to use the Center.

Julie invites us to "remain before God as a pure crystal which the rays of the Sun of Justice penetrate, enlighten and warm."
