Loreto Sisters
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Loreto Sisters belong to one branch of The Institute
of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the religious order founded by an Englishwoman
named Mary Ward in 1609.
Mary
Ward had a vision for a different mode of religious life
for women, captured in the artist's impression (inset). She envisioned
women living a life in companionship and discernment, inspired
by the gospel and engaging with the world without the constraints
of the traditional cloister, nor an established 'Rule', placing
them under the governance of men
