Sisters of Saint Joseph Convent, 7101 W Foster Pl, Chicago, IL 60656, US

The Congregation of the Sisters of the Resurrection is a religious community of women founded in Rome in 1891 by Celine Borzecka and her daughter, Hedwig. They were the first mother-daughter duo to establish a religious community of women in the history of the Catholic Church. The Sisters of the Resurrection continue to live with a vision of hope and confidence in God's love and presence, striving to spread the message that Jesus lives and is always with us. Mother Celine Borzecka, the foundress, and her daughter, Hedwig, lived lives of heroic virtue and were recognized by the Church as Venerable. Mother Celine was beatified in 2007, and both she and Hedwig are candidates for canonization. The Sisters of the Resurrection aim to embody the spirit of their foundresses, seeking Christian perfection and witnessing to their faith through prayer, devotion to the Resurrection of Christ, and a commitment to fulfilling God's will.Generated from the website
