Sisters Minor of Mary Immaculate
- Sisters Minor of Mary Immaculate
The Sisters Minor of Mary Immaculate is a Roman Catholic religious congregation. It was founded by Mother Maria Elisabetta.
The Sisters were founded by Mother Maria Elisabetta Patrizi, SMMI in Rome, Italy with the assistance of Father Elia M. Bruson, OFM Conv., on August 14, 1983 and canonically erected in that Diocese in 1993. They are a semi-cloistered congregation that follows the example of St. Maximilian Kolbe, with ties to St. Therese of Lisieux. The order features a unique Fourth Vow, which is their pledge to be at God's disposal, like Mary, without reserve, for the "greatest glory of God" through the salvation of all in Jesus Christ.
The Sisters Minor of Mary Immaculate currently number over 80 members from 12 nations and are present in Italy, the Czech Republic, Poland, Turkey, France, Slovenia, and the United States of America.
