from our local Bishops

“The members of the monastic expression of the community at Little Portion live out their call to a deepening relationship with and in Jesus, guided by sound monastic principles. They live out their obedience in their worship and in everything else they do. I am confident that their activities as Brothers and Sisters of Charity are of great service in building up the Church wherever they reside.” (2011)

“I recognize the uniqueness of the integrated monastic expression as a new expression of an ancient form of life in the Church, and I encourage its development and guidance in and by the Church.” (1993)
