Very special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph

Joyful community life of which the prioress is the center, and to whom her daughters give their filial obedience

An intensity of silence throughout the day, with little speaking outside of recreation

A strong desire to identify oneself with Christ Crucified by a life of complete self- sacrifice

A dynamic, shared search and thirst for authentic contemplation and perfection as outlined by Our Holy Parents and Founders, St. Teresa of Jesus and St. John of the Cross

An intense desire and striving to live the spirituality and embrace the heritage of Our Holy Founders
