Patroness of our Congregation are exceptional people for us. They are saints who, by their life and virtues, inspire us to live our vocation in the service of God and our neighbor. We have great confidence in their help. "Being more closely united to Christ, those who dwell in heaven fix the whole Church more firmly in holiness. They do not cease to intercede with the Father for us, as they proffer the merits, which they acquired on earth through the one mediator between God and men, Christ Jesus. So by their fraternal concern is our weakness greatly helped." (CCC 956)
