Sisters of St. Joseph & St. Mack
SJSM · Zira CongregationThe congregation that locally administers the school on the ground, in service to the community.
“People who have voluntarily vowed to God, to lead a holy and dedicated life of selfless service to their fellow human beings.”
The Religious Sisters who serve in various Christian Institutions all over India and abroad give themselves to this calling — and it is this same spirit that shapes daily life at St. Joseph’s, Zira.
Four commitments of the vowed life
The Sisters who administer and serve at the school belong to a wider congregation whose life is marked by four enduring commitments.
Vowed Life
Religious Sisters serving across Christian institutions in India and abroad have voluntarily vowed to God to lead a holy and dedicated life.
Selfless Service
Their calling is one of selfless service to fellow human beings — surrendering totally to the love of God and to the service of humanity.
Life in Community
To give themselves wholly to this calling, they renounce family life and live together in religious communities known as Convents.
Prayer & Serenity
The Convent is not merely a residence but a home of prayer and serenity — the quiet centre from which service flows outward.
