Testimonials
Hear from our Sisters
Why did you say YES to becoming a Sister of Charity of the Incarnate Word?
My "YES" as I consider, started- L O N G ago. "I Call it an Invitation in Progress." My "CALL" has been a long journey - of events that God led me gradually but surely- But the best of it ALL GOD was in the mix!

I simply wanted to be a nun. This Congregation was so much a part of my life and as the years went by and I aged, I realized more and more why this congregation was so important to me.

Already in first grade, I wanted to consecrate my whole self to God and God’s concerns with the same zest and zeal that I saw in the Sister of Charity of the Incarnate Word who taught in my rural elementary school.

: In the 1960s, God called me through two friends who entered the convent and the Sisters I met at school. They were joyful, and I wanted to discover the source of that joy.

I was a student at Instituto Miguel Angel in Mexico City, I met the Sisters who were teaching there, and developed a relationship with them. I knew from that point I wanted to be a part of the Congregation.

My parish priest knew the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word who worked at Instituto America in Chihuahua. He was promoting the religious life, I asked him I wanted to become a sister, and he introduced me to CCVI’s I knew then I wanted to be a part of this family.
