Little Sisters of the Assumption Family in Mission - Connected by a desire to transform our world

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.

The Season of Creation is a time of prayer and celebration that takes place from September 1 to October 4 to recognize God as the creator of all life and to renew our relationship with creation.In "Hope and Act with Creation," Pope Francis calls us to unite and walk together with all people of goodwill. During this critical time for our common home, we stand together. Believing in a better future requires us to take action to make it a reality. We respond to Pope Francis' message with hope, prayer, and action. We encourage you to use the Season of Creation Guide within your local groups and to participate in the virtual activities.
