Sisters of St. Martha of Antigonish

We Sisters of St. Martha, inspired by God's graciousness, hear, embrace and respond to the cry for Gospel hospitality.

We choose to live an inter-relational life, committing ourselves to the values of:

Hospitality …open our hearts and homes to our sisters and brothers…

Communion …we commit ourselves to a life of prayer and community…

Consecrated Life … we proclaim this life as gift to the Church and world… we invite and welcome new members…and share our life with young people.

Justice … honouring the dignity, responsibilities and rights of all, especially those who are poor and marginalized.

Service …characterized by the quality of presence conducive to the development of persons.

Simplicity, the singleness of heart that is central to our identity

Collaboration, as a way of being with our brothers and sisters in the pursuit of common goals.

Stewardship, expressed in sound planning and management of our resources.
