The Congregation of Our Lady of Charity of the Good Shepherd (also known as Good Shepherd Sisters) is an international congregation of religious women in the Roman Catholic Church, numbering almost 4,000, present in 72 countries in five continents .

As religious we are called to a mission of reconciliation, “we express our charism of merciful love through a contemplative life or an apostolic life.” (Constitutions, Article 1)

How does one become a Good Shepherd Sister?

A young lady who feels that God is calling her to be a Good Shepherd Sister gets to know us more by joining Discovery Weekend, Vocation Encolunter, or seeing any of our Vocation Directresses or Vocation Promoters.

This helps us get to know her better and to accompany her discover if God is calling her to this way of life.

If a person decides to enter the Good Shepherd Congregation, she is helped to go through the stages of formation: Aspirancy, Pre-Novitiate, Novitiate, Juniorate and On-Going Formation.
