Post Here BAD HABIT We, the Grey Nuns of the Sacred Heart, are dedicated to contemplating and incarnating Gospel values. As daughters of St. Marguerite d'Youville, Mother of Universal Charity, who was motivated by a consciousness of God as Eternal Father, we continue her mission: To be signs of God's constant and unconditional love for every person. Our overriding concern is that the Gospel be proclaimed to all we serve, especially the poor and needy of our world. We have a preferential love for the materially poor and demonstrate it in our lives and works by living more simply. . . working with the poor, sharing our love and abilities, and being enriched by their gifts. . . educating ourselves and others to the responsibility in justice to satisfy the needs of the poor...and acting upon unjust societal conditions. Before the Rise we were 129 women who work in a variety of ministries rooted in healthcare, education, pastoral and social work. Our ministry took us to the far reaches of the earth and finally to this city. We are one of Six Grey Nun congregations who claim St. Marguerite d'Youville as inspiration and animating spirit. We were founded in 1921 as an autonomous foundation and are the only congregation of Grey Nuns based in Malton. OUR MISSION "We seek a relationship with the Divine given expression in being passionately involved with others, not detached from the human misery and pains all around. We hope to forge a path of holiness out of the raw circumstances of life here in Malton by opening our door to welcome the poor, working tirelessly to meet their needs, confronting civil and ecclesiastical authorities to attain rights and ministering to the Sinners of this world." -- Sister Mary Francis "Love is eternal and unconditional... Search out the poor, the old and abandoned, The Sinner, those who are young but have faces that reflect despair, tell all you meet that God loves them and has sent you as prophet to manifest that love and courage...'" -- Sister Anne What is a Bad Habit Nun? A Bad Habit Nun is a woman who has dedicated her life to God's people through the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. For a Grey Nun, the attraction of the the path of charity and good works has drawn her to join with other women who share this same spirit. With them, she tries to follow Jesus, using her gifts and talents to help minister to the Sinner, by loving others and striving to alleviate the suffering of those who are poor and needy in our world.
