Leadership: Crossing the Human-Human Divide

We thank all of you for supporting us in prayer during our 2016 Provincial/Regional Superiors’ Meeting in Sangsam-li, Korea.  The theme of our meeting was “Leadership: Crossing the Human – Human Divide.”  This gave us ample opportunity to share our ideas on how to tear down dividing walls and to build bridges between people, cultures, religions etc. This is also part of the answer our charism provides to the challenges of the world today: “Unity is strength.”  The newsletter in our internal site will tell you more about our discussions and deliberations.

Reflection on the Logo

The Cross
is the heart of the Logo. It reminds us of Servant Leadership mirrored in the humility of Christ. In the cross every person is accepted, the cross unites all in Christ.

The Inner Cross
reminds us that we should dedicate ourselves to the mission God has entrusted to us. We should serve one another with a deep reverence.

The Figures
represent our sisters in the various provinces and regions with their diverse ministries and responsibilities. They themselves resemble the shape of a cross because they have a common origin and a common purpose and goal. We are reminded that all we do and all we are is only meaningful in Him, who has redeemed us with his Precious Blood.

The River
on which the figures – we Sisters – stand underpins the link between heaven and earth: we are called to be witnesses to the Risen Christ – together and united with one another, with bold humility in life-giving service.

During the Fourth Week of Lent,

the Gospels show Jesus Christ healing

the sick and giving sight

to the blind, and revealing His unity with the Father,

emphasising that faith in His word brings life

and spiritual light. At the same time, growing

opposition to Jesus and the example of Saint Joseph

highlight the contrast between those who

trust God’s plan and those who resist it.

Third Week of Lent
God’s call to conversion
God patiently calls us to conversion. He invites us to bear fruit through humility, forgiveness, and faithful love.
As we continue our Lenten journey, we are encouraged to trust in God’s mercy, forgive others, and live our faith sincerely each day.

We give thanks for the gift of women in the world.
As religious women, we are called to witness God’s love through service, compassion, courage, and fidelity to our mission.

May our lives continue to be a sign of hope, justice, and dedication, especially to those who are most in need.

Happy Women’s Day.

The Second Week of Lent 2026
emphasizes that true transformation
begins within. Just as Jesus revealed
His glory after inviting the disciples
to climb the mountain and listen to the Father’s voice, Lent calls us to step out of comfort and grow through prayer, silence, and honesty. It is not an escape from reality but a preparation to face it with faith and courage. This season invites us to open our hearts, listen more deeply, trust more fully, and walk faithfully toward Easter.

We are invited to follow
Christ more closely.
In His humanity, Jesus
was tempted but did not give in.
The devil presented every
possible option to make
He succumbed, yet He remained
steadfast and faithful
to the Father. This reminds us
that we are not called to
rely on ourselves or to
gratify our own abilities.
Instead, we are invited to
trust in God’s constant
help and His faithful
presence, especially in
moments of temptation.

Lent provides us with a perfect opportunity to
“begin again” in our lives as religious women.

Our lives as CPS are rooted in the
continual flow of life, death and resurrection
– the continual dying
and rising with Jesus –
in our own lives and in the lives of those
to whom we minister and meet daily.
But before we can be women of reconciliation
for those to whom we minister and encounter,
we must first be women of reconciliation
among ourselves.

“If no one goes, I go!”
These courageous words of our Founder,
continue to echo in our hearts today.
They remind us that our vocation as
Missionary Sisters of the Precious Blood
is rooted in availability, sacrifice and love
without limit.

In this lent season, we are invited to
renew our personal response to Christ,
to go where we are needed, 
to serve even in difficulty and 
to offer ourselves more
deeply to God’s service.

lent is our time to say again,
with faith and courage…

Lord, I go!
