The deepening of interiority and the core encounter with Jesus that sensitizes us to His presence in ourselves, in others, in our world – through the contemplative dimension of our life as well as through accompaniment of retreats, spiritual direction, pastoral work and evangelization. At the same time, we strive to open spaces, in our widely diverse contexts, within which our lay sisters and brothers, our partners in mission, can explore, develop and express their spirituality. This allows us to listen to one another more deeply and to listen for the voice of God speaking through each one.
Wherever we are sent, whatever our work may be, our lives will be inspired by the love of the Heart of Jesus and the desire of making Him known, expressed in: a concern for the growth of the whole person; a thirst for working towards justice and peace in the world in response to the cry of the poor; a passion to proclaim the Gospel. (Constitutions, §13)
The Society of the Sacred Heart does different types of spiritual work and accompaniment: pastoral work and spiritual accompaniment, retreat houses/programs, youth and vocation programs, sexual diversity pastoral care, Christian communities, pastoral health care, programs in Sacred Heart spirituality.
