Who are the Filiae Laboris Mariae?

Sisters from the Filiæ Laboris Mariæ (Daughters of the Work of Mary), a semi-contemplative Marian community based in Redfield, Kansas, visit Father Walker School once a semester during the school year to talk to students about religious vocations and provide religious education.

Founded on the Feast of Our Lady, Mother of Divine Grace (June 9th) in 2017, at Saint Mary’s Parish in Independence, Missouri, in the Diocese of Kansas City-Saint Joseph. The Sisters' spirituality and charism is based on three labors modeled after the spirit of the Home of Nazareth: the Sacred Liturgy, the interior life, and the apostolate. 

The virtues proper to a Filia are faith, simplicity and filial confidence. They seek to live the hidden life in the company and in imitation of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. "Jesus leads us to the Father and gives us of His Spirit, thus drawing us into life with the Three—our ultimate end and desire. Like Our Lady, we are privileged to care for Jesus: Jesus in one another, Jesus in His priests, Jesus in all souls we serve."
