Sisterhood of the Holy Nativity (SHN)

Ours is a mixed life, which means that we combine an apostolic ministry with a contemplative lifestyle. The Rule of the Sisterhood of the Holy Nativity follows the model of the Rule of St Augustine of Hippo. As such, we strive to make the love of God the motive of all our actions. The ‘charisms’, which undergird our life, are Charity, Humility, Prayer, and Missionary Zeal. Our work involves us with children’s ministries such as Sunday School, Summer Camp and Vacation Bible School, as well as ministry to those we meet in everyday life.
