Vierge Marie« Mary, the servant of the Lord », such is the mother that God chose for himself ; such is the mother that Christ gave to all his disciples. We can understand that he humble Rose Giet, who thought herself only worthy to serve the others, who never looked for her own glory but only for the glory of God, we can understand that our Foundress had got a very great love for the Virgin Mary. She wanted to hide herself, so to speak, behind the Mother of Jesus, the Mother of the Church, appointed as the first superior of her whole Congregation. Thanks to Mary, who kept and meditated in her heart all the “states and mysteries” of Christ, we are invited to better fulfil our vocation of DCSHJ.”
The Daughters of the Charity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, p.53

During the first years of its foundation, the Congregation of the Daughters of the Charity of the Sacred Heart of  Jesus, started in La Salle de Vihiers, spread to diverse parishes of Anjou, of Poitou and the region of Nantes.
