" Religious of the Sacred Heart - rscj"

What is the Society of the Sacred Heart?
The Society of the Sacred Heart is an international Catholic religious congregation of women. It was founded in France in 1800 by St Madeleine Sophie Barat. It carries on its mission through the Church by making known the revelation of God's love, whose source and symbol is for them the Heart of Christ.

125yrs In 1882, five Religious of the Sacred Heart arrived on board the SS Orient. These five Foundresses had travelled from England to establish a school of the Sacred Heart here in Sydney. After careful exploration, they accepted the residence, called Claremont on the Vaucluse peninsula, to begin their task of offering students the educational vision and spirituality of Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat, the founder of their Society.
