Sisters of St. Louis
The Sisters of St Louis (SSL) is a French Catholic religious order of nuns founded by Louis Eugene Marie Bautain and Thérèse de la Croix in 1842.
The order traces its origins back to Strasbourg, France, in 1797, when three religious people signed a spiritual act of union and vowed to remain united together in the heart of Christ until death; Fr Louis Eugene Marie Bautain was influenced by this union and he and Mère Thérèse de la Croix officially founded the SSL in Juilly, France in 1842.
The order was originally established to promote Christian education for young people and has set up a number of schools around the world. It originally included men as well as women but subsequently became a women-only order.
In 2024, it is a relatively small order with a total of 380 members around the world; members follow the motto of “Sint Unum - May they be one”.
The first SSL in Brazil was established in 1978.
The first SSL in Belgium was established in 1903.
The first SSL in Benin was established in 2001.
The order has 13 branches in Canada (mainly Quebec).
