This section deals with the major stages of this human and spiritual adventure: the life of Peter Vigne, the foundation of the congregation in 1715 in Boucieu-le-Roi, the development of the religious community through the centuries. You will also discover, how despite many challenges, the sisters have continued to maintain and transmit their founder’s missionary spirit.
