Our Mission
The Sisterhood of St. John the Divine is a contemporary expression of the religious life for women within the Anglican Church of Canada. Founded in Toronto in 1884, we are a prayer and gospel-centred monastic community, bound together by the call to live out our baptismal covenant through the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Nurtured by our founding vision of prayer, community, and ministry we are open and responsive to the needs of the church and the contemporary world, continually seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit in our life and ministry.
