I have Leticia Velasquez to thank for letting me know about this wonderful religious community for women with Down's Syndrome. Right now, they are only in France, but I hope that they spread worldwide!
The Little Sisters Disciples of the Lamb are a contemplative community that enables girls with Down’s syndrome to respond to a religious vocation.
To Offer Oneself to God in witness to the Gospel of Life
Together for a contemplative life
