MISSION
Fidelis forms girls — heart, mind, body, and soul — into a sisterhood of mature, virtuous disciples of Christ through the witness of Catholic women.
Who We Are
Fidelis is a multigenerational Sisterhood of Catholic women seeking to live out our Feminine Genius by serving our communities and inviting girls in grades 6-12 into sisterhood, leading each other to Christ and journeying together from Sisters to Saints®. With our 'yes' to God we use intentional, virtuous and feminine means to form girls into women who can proclaim with confidence to God, "Paratum cor meum Deus, my heart is ready , O God, my heart is ready."
What We Do
With the intent on capturing the heart of a young woman, Fidelis uses movie clips, activities, and games to teach virtue, all in the context of mentorship and sisterhood. Fidelis draws girls into the heart of the Church by connecting discussions on virtue to the Sunday Mass readings, the Catechism and lives of the Saints. These lessons come to life during weekly meetings, seasonal outings, and an annual Inspire trip where chapters from around the country gather.
Why We Do It
God created us for community. Women especially have a gift to influence the world around her through her own gift of self in daily relationships. Fidelis invites women to use this gift and be an example to others through their witness of a virtuous life, personal prayer, participation in the Sacraments, and meaningful involvement with her parish. As women grow in holiness, the Holy Spirit compels them to pass this on to the next generation. Fidelis forms young women not only by teaching about virtue but also by presenting living models of discipleship.
