Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matará

For the women religious in the Institute, their primary vocation is to be the "Spouse of Christ." Through the vows of their consecration, they dedicate themselves entirely to Christ, the Redeemer of humanity and the Spouse of Souls. This profound commitment allows them to embrace their femininity fully. By giving themselves completely to Christ, they respond to the spousal gift, mirroring the love and total self-gift of Christ Himself.

The women religious of the Institute seek to imitate Mary of Nazareth, the ultimate role model for every religious woman. Mary exemplifies the qualities of chastity, poverty, and obedience, characteristics that they strive to embrace in their own lives. By emulating Mary, they become tangible signs of God's tender love for humanity and witnesses to the mystery of the Church, who is Virgin, Bride, and Mother.
