Religious Sisters of Charity
The Religious Sisters of Charity or Irish Sisters of Charity is a Roman Catholic religious institute founded by Mary Aikenhead in Ireland in 1815.
Its motto is "Caritas Christi urget nos" (''The love Christ urges us on'') (2 Corinthians 5:14).
The institute has its headquarters at Harold's Cross in Dublin and operates in the Ireland, England, Scotland, Nigeria, Zambia, USA and Venezuela. The website states that 'The whole congregation is governed by a congregational leader, assisted by a group of sisters known as the general leadership team or the general council.'〔("Congregational Structure", The Religious Sisters of Charity )〕 The Religious Sisters of Charity of Australia is constituted as a distinct Congregation.
In England and Scotland, it operates as a registered charity and in 2007–8 had a gross income of £15.5 million and 251 employees.
==History==
The religious institute was founded by Mary Frances Aikenhead (1787–1858) who opened its first convent in Dublin in 1815.
In 1834 St. Vincent's Hospital in Dublin was set up by Mary Aikenhead (the first hospital staffed by nuns in the English-speaking world).
In 1838 five sisters arrived in Australia — the first religious women to set foot on Australian soil — and later opened a convent in Parramatta. Since 1842 the Australian congregation has operated independently. St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, was founded by the Sisters in 1857.〔(St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney: History )〕
In 1925, the Sisters of Charity ventured to Queensland, Australia to open a school, Mt St Michael's College - originally known as Grantuly until 1941 - in Ashgrove.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Our History )
In 1879 the Sisters opened a hospice in Harold's Cross, Dublin, pioneering the modern hospice movement. The Sisters operate a heritage centre within the grounds of Our Lady's Hospice, Harold's Cross, Dublin.〔(Mary Aikenhead Heritage Centre )〕 In December 2003, Our Lady's Hospice opened a satellite unit for specialist palliative care in Blackrock, Co. Dublin called The Venerable Louis and Zelie Martin Hospice. It was provided through the generosity of the Louis and Zelie Martin Foundation.〔(Our Lady's Hospice Heritage )〕
