Perpetual Profession marks the beginning of a Sister’s total commitment to follow in the footsteps of Christ through a life of poverty, obedience, and chastity, as a Sister of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration.
Our Vow Formula
While no longer in initial formation, a Sister in who has professed perpetual vows enters into a lifelong process of continuing formation. Each Sister strives to allow herself to be taught and formed everyday through the exterior and interior events of life.
At the time of her Perpetual Profession of Vows, the Sister receives a ring to symbolize her lasting covenant with God and her espousal to Christ.
Our Sisters are supported in their ongoing formation by participating in community events, making an annual retreat, setting aside a special day each month for reflection, participating in faith-sharing groups, and gathering with each other for monthly renewal discussions.
