Institute Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matara
"The main thing is that they are - or should be - authentic Brides of Christ and, from there, that the main objective of their lives is to give love to Jesus Christ. If this is missing, everything else is superfluous, everything else without this, is of little use".
(Servidoras Vol.I, Fr. Carlos Miguel Buela)
“The Institute Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matará, SSVM, was founded by Reverend Father Carlos Miguel Buela, March 19th, 1988, the Solemnity of Saint Joseph, on the request of some youth who desired to live the same style of life as the Religious of the Incarnate Word. The Institute was erected as an Religious Institute of Diocesan Rite by Bishop Andrea Maria Erba, Bishop of Velletri-Segni on March 24th, 2004, on the Vigil of the Solemnity of the Incarnate Word.
