Franciscan Sisters of the Atonement - Graymoor

We, the Franciscan Sisters of the Atonement are a missionary congregation of women religious called by God through the Church, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and inspired by the vision of our founders, Mother Lurana Mary White and Father Paul James Wattson.
In loving fidelity to this call, our covenant, we recognize and support our diversity and giftedness. We accomplish this through a shared life of at-one-ment that nurtures and encourages each Sister to live the fullest expression of Christian love.
We are sent to the People of God as witnesses of the Kingdom. In Franciscan simplicity and joy we serve the poor as we strive to empower those who are neglected or oppressed. We remain open to other ministries which respond to the needs of our times.
We strive also to be instruments of justice and peace wherever we labor in building up the Body of Christ. Thus, through prayer and ministry, we proclaim the Gospel seeking to fulfill the prayer of Jesus, "that all may be one."
