The "Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary" is a Roman Catholic religious order founded in 1610 by Saint Francis de Sales and Saint Jane Frances de Chantal. The order is dedicated to the spiritual and educational needs of women, focusing on the virtues of humility, charity, and service. Members of the order are known as Visitation Sisters and often engage in teaching, nursing, and other forms of community service. The name of the order is inspired by the biblical event of the Visitation, where the Virgin Mary visits her cousin Elizabeth. The order emphasizes the importance of contemplative prayer and community life, fostering a deep relationship with God while serving others in their local communities.
