Our congregational vision statement proclaims:

Turn To the Lord Your God
Accept God's unconditional love.

Be Eucharist
Centered in Jesus, gift received, gift given.

Be Sister
Live the Paschal Mystery, nurture, encourage and celebrate.

Be Servant
Faithful daughter of Mary and of Blessed Mary Angela, embrace all in Franciscan joy.

Be compassionate and merciful,
Be a prophetic witness to a world in need of healing
Proclaim the saving presence of God to all.


Vision is often described as the picture we have of the future of a group. It is a vivid, imaginative conception flowing from our mission and who we say we are. Vision gives us a sense of direction. It provides us with a shared plan and goals for the future.

The Vision statement of the Felician Sisters - Chicago Province is an inspired, communal statement from our 1999 Province Chapter Meeting and thus is a truly shared vision. Because we desire a vibrant and vital future, it too is a vivid, imaginative picture of that desired future - Women On Fire.

As "Women On Fire" Felicians work at keeping our "old" fires alive for the sake of building new ones. For honoring our tradition doesn't mean that we hang onto the ashes of the past, but means rather to fan the flame.
