The twentieth century in the Catholic Church was the age of martyrs and witnesses to the faith. One of such witness is Archbishop Teofilius Matulionis, who was born in Lithuania, worked in Russia for a long time and spent many years in Soviet camps. The bishop was a man of prayer and a great organizer of the spiritual life, faithful to his vocation, obedient to the Apostolic Throne, and scarifying. Although Theophilus Matulionis did not lack for suffering in his life, he was always a witness to the Gospel, matured in the virtues of faith, love, and hope. His life and deeds were appreciated by Pope Francis declaring him blessed.

Blessed Jurgis Matulaitis, the revival of the Marian monastery, established a new womenʼs monastery – Congregation of the Poor Sisters of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1918, which was approved by those days Bishop Antanas Karosas on October 15of the same year. The regulations of the monastery were also approved at that time. The purpose of this congregation was to help the little ones, so the nuns among people were soon called simply the Sisters of the Poor. The thoughts of the Desert Fathers and the experience of their monastic life are very much in harmony with the Congregation statements of the Poor Sisters of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The monastery, having preserved the basic principles of the monastic spirituality formed in the Egyptian desert – solitude, asceticism and prayer – implemented them in new times and under new conditions, but no longer with drawn from society, but having created a kind of desert oasis surrounded by people.
