This week we turn our eye to The Servants of the Blessed Sacrament in Waterville, Maine. Founded in 1858 in France, the Servants of the Blessed Sacrament are devoted to the Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
We make each of our houses a Eucharistic Center, Where many people can share in our life of prayer and find helps for their spiritual development and Eucharistic formation (Rule of Life #1)
These sisters are a comtemplative community, but they are not cloistered.
Besides maintaining continuous Adoration, we also do various works that help to make the Eucharist known and loved. We make our houses Centers of Adoration which draw others closer to the Lord and help them to grow spiritually.
(Rule of Life #37)
Working within a parish, the sisters provide services depending on the needs of the parish community and the talents of the sisters. Preference is given to activities that promote the Eucharistic Mystery.
Take some time and visit the website of The Servants of the Blessed Sacrament.
