Italian original Cite

DAUGHTERS OF MERCY OF THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY (BAYEUX). - They were founded at Blon, in the diocese of Bayeux, in 1842, and received the decree of praise on 20 February 1861 and that of approval on 21 March 1864. The bishop of Bayeux, on 18 February 1862, provisionally approved the constitutions, which were then definitively approved on 20 August 1872 and again revised and brought into harmony with the Code on 22 August 1946. They carry out works of charity toward orphans and the sick and devote themselves to the Christian education of youth.

There are at present 105 sisters in 16 houses.
