In a very real
sense, “who we are” as Felician Sisters is not determined
by “what we do,” but by a vision
and commitment realized in our everyday activities.
We are popularly called “Felician” because of our association
with Saint
Felix of Cantalice, a Franciscan Capuchin of the 16th century.
As Felician Sisters, we take public vows of poverty, chastity, and
obedience, and follow the Franciscan way of life, commit to Franciscan
simplicity, and adopt the Franciscan preference for the poor. We
serve where we are needed, but also spend much of our time in common
prayer, individual meditation, and Eucharistic adoration.
As a community, we provide support for each other, gaining strength
through each other's presence, making it possible to accomplish
much more as a group than might be possible as individuals. This
community provides a framework for our personal salvation journey—and
wonderful companions to support each other along the way.
