There are about one thousand sisters in Poland, Italy, France, Germany, Belarus, Ukraine, Finland, Tanzania, Argentina, Brazil, the Philippines and Canada (Windsor, London, Ottawa)

Motherhouse: Poland, Pniewy; Generalate: Italy, Rome

The first convent in North America was established in Windsor, Ontario (1965)
Thanks to Msgr. Lawrence A. Wnuk, P.A.
In Windsor the Sisters are involved in “Polonia” activities, in the teaching of Polish language and culture, by cultivating Polish customs and traditions.
They also teach in Canadian schools – elementary and secondary.
In cooperation with the Parish, they try to implant Christian values in daily life, especially of the young people (Day Care, Eucharistic Crusaders).

Our goal is to build a multicultural community living in peace and harmony:
“Ad maiorem Dei gloriam”
