MIRROR OF SAINTS

WEBSITE

he Oblates of Santa Francesca Romana in Rome live in a monastery called the Tower of Mirrors. In prayer, yet exhibiting charity, removed from the world by cloistering, they also live like Christ in the midst of their teeming city. Indeed, they remind one of Mother Teresa's Sisters of Charity. And this is true of all saints' lives, this mirroring of Christ in their love of God and of neighbour. We are all called to be saints, to hallow our lives within God's hallowed Creation, to mirror reflect God as do saints, in whose image we all are.
