Sisters of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George
The Sisters of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George is a Roman Catholic Congregation of consecrated women based on the spirituality of St. Francis of Assisi. Mother M. Anselma Bopp and Father John Gerard Dall founded the Order in Thuine, Germany, in 1869. The Order expanded to the U.S. in 1923 with the founding of a Provincialate and Novitiate in Alton, Illinois, which continues to be the location of the Provincial House. They are also located in other areas of Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Kansas, New Jersey, Ohio, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin, as well as missions in Brazil and Cuba.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cmswr.org/member_communities/SSFMSG.htm )〕
== Charisms and Apostolate ==
The main charism of the Sisters of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George is to “make the merciful love of Christ visible”—i.e., to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to show the world His love for each person.〔 The Sisters have particular devotions to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Mass, the Eucharist, Scripture, the Liturgy of the Hours, and the Stations of the Cross. They live out these charisms by celebrating Mass daily and having Benediction and exposition of the Blessed Sacrament daily from 6:30 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. and all night on Fridays. They set aside time daily for Scripture meditation and pray the Liturgy of the Hours, the prayer of the universal Church, 4 times daily. The Sisters also meditate on the Way of the Cross and pray the rosary daily.
Their Franciscan Spirituality follows St. Francis of Assisi’s particular love for the Incarnation and Passion of Christ, as well as adoring and receiving the Holy Eucharist.〔 An additional charism that expresses their love for the Passion of Christ is the Cross prayer. St. Francis prayed with his arms outstretched before the Crucifix, and the Sisters imitate this action as a prayer of abandonment and surrender to God’s Will.〔
The Sisters of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George exercise their charisms through serving the Church in different apostolic works, including health care, education, child care, care of the elderly, parish and diocesan office work, household services in bishops’ households and priest retirement homes, and within their own convents and house of formation.〔
