The thesis aims at an exploration of the charism of the Daughters of Divine Love
Congregation in the light of the Second Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians
(5:14-21). This passage of the scripture is chosen because it is what forms the basis of the
charism of the Congregation of the Daughter of Divine Love and is central to
understanding of that charism.
The charism represents the commitment that everyone who is welcomed into the
Congregation makes so as to give response to God’s call to Divine love, exercised first
of all, in the love of oneself and then of the neighbour.

The charism of the Congregation
is the compelling force of the life of the Daughters, and all the members of the
Congregation strive to give response to God’s call to the love of God and the fellow
human beings.
Generous loving response to Divine Love Incarnate has a central place in
the life of the Daughters of Divine Love.
