For the S.H congregation this noble educational endeavour is a continuation of the ministry of Jesus and we are committed to the cause of the kingdom of God. Guiding Principles The leading light and the inner energy of our congregation is the Most Adorable Sacred Heart of Jesus, the source and summit of love. We are compelled by this very love of the Sacred Herat of Jesus in our ministry of education. The message of the Gospels to impart light and knowledge to the peoples inspire us to invest in education. We are also obedient and open to the teachings of the magisterium of the church that enable us to discern the signs of the time. The charism of our congregation and the enduring wish of our founder Fr. Mathew Kadalikattil show us the right path in this mission of dispelling the darkness of ignorance. Vision The Sacred Heart Congregation and its educational agency are powered by the redemptive mission of Jesus the Lord. We envisage a bright future in this field as all are open to the need for quality education. The days ahead are tough as there is tight competition in the field of education. We are prompted by the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and our enduring vision is uncompromising and undivided.
