Welcome to The Daughters of the Heart of Mary

Painting done for 160th AnnivOur Society is a world-wide congregation of vowed women religious founded in 1790 through the inspiration of a Jesuit and a lay woman who ardently desired to imitate Our Blessed Mother and the early Christians in their way of life.

In the 21st Century, we live our charism to respond to the needs of the time. We continue to foster and support life in a world in travail.

As part of a global congregation, the U.S. Province of the Daughters of the Heart of Mary embraces diversity, which is represented among our members in the United States and abroad.

In the spirit of our Founders, and with contemplative hearts, we seek truth, promote peace, and reverence all life in the name of Jesus, who is our center, and his mother Mary, who is our model.

Our Mission
