Sisters of the Precious Blood

Our Mission Statement

Urged by the redeeming love of Jesus the Christ and rooted in Eucharistic prayer, we Sisters of the Precious Blood proclaim God’s love by being a life-giving, reconciling presence in our fractured world.

Founded in Switzerland in 1834 by Maria Anna Brunner, we are an active apostolic congregation devoted to Eucharistic prayer and motivated by the redeeming love of Jesus. Empowered by Eucharist, we minister where the needs of the time call us. Our Sisters minister in the United States, Chile and Guatemala. We rely on the special gifts and talents of each of our Sisters to advocate for justice; provide voices for the unheard, hope to the hopeless, and light to those living in darkness.

Do you feel called? Frederick Buchner puts it beautifully when he says, “Vocation is where your deep gladness meets the world’s deep hunger.” We experience our deepest gladness when we are living our call to holiness.

Eucharistic prayer is a vital element of our Precious Blood Spirituality. We pray for the intercession of God’s healing, transformative love signified by the outpouring of Jesus’ redemptive sacrifice on the Cross.

There are many things that make our community of Sisters special. Our Precious Blood spirituality, our prayerful devotion to the Holy Eucharist, and the work we do to help the overlooked, downtrodden, and less fortunate members of society all combine to create a truly unique and impactful religious order.
