Jubilaeum - Ven. Dolores Medina Zepeda

During his lifetime, St. Paul of the Cross founded two branches of the Passionists: the priests and brothers as one and the nuns as another. However, in the centuries since our Holy Founder’s death, his special charism has served as the inspiration for many other religious congregations. One such “sister congregation” to the Passionists is the Daughters of the Passion of Jesus Christ and of the Sorrowful Virgin Mary. This community was founded 125 years ago by Venerable Dolores Medina Zepeda, a Mexican woman who saw Christ Crucified suffering in the young women she encountered.
