The International Union of Superiors General (UISG) has convened an international moment of prayer in the face of the escalating violence and war affecting numerous regions of the world.

“As consecrated women religious, present in the most fragile contexts of society and close to those who suffer, we cannot remain silent in the face of a spiral of destruction that undermines human dignity and jeopardizes the future of new generations,” says Roxanne Schares, SSND, UISG executive secretary in UISG’s statement released on March 4.

UISG represents more than 1,900 congregations of women religious present on six continents and is a close partner with LCWR.
