We are one family, bonded together and sent to change conditions that breed poverty, injustice, discrimination and marginalization.

We care for one another. Caring gives birth to covenant relationships ―empathy, friendship, tenderness, compassion, mercy, unconditional love and deep respect.

The power of growth is in relationship where in every encounter we are both giver and receiver. We value ‘power with’ vs ‘power over’

Belief in the capacity to rise beyond one’s struggles.

Our Spirituality leads to personal transformation and transformation of the world.

We live what we believe that we are sent to those who have neither voice nor influence in this world.

Little Sisters of the Assumption Family in Mission
A message from our International Council in Paris, France.On this feast day, we celebrate Mary’s journey, our own journey:«…Her Assumption gives us the certainty that a new world is being prepared; she sustains our hope and gives us the courage to dedicate ourselves with our brothers and sisters in work for the transformation of humanity ».(LSA Rule of Life 12).This year, several Little Sisters, including the General Council, will take part in the National Pilgrimage to Lourdes, presided over by Cardinal Vesco, Archbishop of Algiers. On this occasion, we will mark the 30th anniversary of the martyrdom of the monks of Tibhirine and remember our Sister Paul-Hélène who was assassinated in 1994.On 15 August, our sisters in Sahalava – Fianarantsoa will celebrate 30 years of the LSA’s presence in Madagascar. We also rejoice in the commitment of 10 laypeople, members of the fraternities in Fianarantsoa, who will make their commitments.Together with Mary, and with all of you, we will be united in prayer with you, your families and our communities, entrusting your intentions and our forthcoming General Chapter in June 2027 to God. Together with you, in our Assumption family, we will be present ‘at the humble beginnings of the Church’ (RL 12).Together, let us open our hearts to thanksgiving, welcome God’s gift, and draw from the source of the Risen Christ that strength which enables us to be on mission and to move forward with our eyes fixed on Heaven!A joyful Feast of the Assumption to you all! With our sisterly affection,Nathalie and the Council ... See MoreSee Less

When I read the mission statement of the Little Sisters of the Assumption, I found it expressed my own sentiments when it said, “We bring together the least advantaged and the privileged in a spirit of family to inspire everyone to participate in creating a just society.”

I know that these 11 months have given me much more than two semesters at a university could ever have given me; I now feel much more ready to resume my studies.
