Sisters for Christian Community

Sisters for Christian Community is a contemporary, non-canonical, ecumenical organization of women founded in 1970 in direct response to the Roman Catholic Vatican Council II. Sisters For Christian Community do not have a canonically approved constitution. Instead, members live by a Profile that embodies the values and principles defined and set forth in the official documents of Vatican Council II. The Profile includes the Mission and Vision of SFCC, the common spirituality, commitment, values, lifestyle and organizational structure.
Members live according to the evangelical vows and manifest their commitment to God within a new form of consecrated life they believe to be both prophetic and ecclesiastical. The Vow of Poverty is lived as serving and sharing; Obedience is practiced by the individual member through a careful listening to God and the cry of the poor; Chastity is lived as celibate love. Each member is self-supporting and responsible to finance her ministry, personal needs, housing, medical care and retirement. Each member determines her ministry on the basis of her personal call within community, her training and interests, as well as the movement of the God both within herself and the needs of those around her. Sisters For Christian Community are most often found in ministries that favor the poor and marginalized of the world. The primary mission of the Sisters For Christian Community it to work toward a global community of equality, justice and integrity.
The community does not own any property in common but is organized into geographical regions. As of 2015, there are 31 regions spread throughout 14 nations, which include but are not limited to: Australia, Canada, England, Guam, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, Philippines, Portugal, Scotland and the United States. Members convene annually at an International Assembly to conduct community wide business, as well as explore the spiritual theme and topic selected for the specific assembly. The location of the International Assembly is in a different place each year. All community decisions, at both the local and international levels, are made through a process of consensus.
Leadership in Sisters For Christian Community is primarily for the purpose of communication. Selection of a leader is through a community-wide process in which each member discerns her qualifications, ability and time before offering her services at either the regional or international level. Serving in a leadership role is an unpaid, voluntary endeavor for the good of the community.
Formation in Sisters For Christian Community is called the Becoming Process. A person in the 1st stage is an Inquirer. Any member may serve as the contact between and Inquirer and the local community members for 1 year. The Inquirer attends local regional meetings in order to learn about Sisters For Christian Community and to meet members.
The Region members and the Inquirer discern when she is ready to sign the Covenant of Affiliation and enter the 2nd stage as an Affiliate. The new Affiliate selects her SFCC mentor with whom she works closely for 1 year. She continues to attend meetings. During this period, the Region formally introduces the new Affiliate to the international membership through the community-wide newsletter, ALL-TO-ALL (ATA). The Region membership and Affiliate mutually discern when the Affiliate will be affirmed into full membership of the Sisters For Christian Community. Affirmation includes the pronouncement of the evangelical vows of poverty, obedience and celibacy, referred by Sisters For Christian Community as serving, Listening and Loving 〔Sisters For Christian Community Collection, Avila University Special Collections, Kansas City, Missouri〕
