The Institute of the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist (FSE) is a Roman Catholic religious congregation for women.
The motherhouse is in Meriden, Connecticut, in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Hartford.
The Institute of the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist was founded by Mother Rosemae Pender, FSE on December 2, 1973, as a result of a period of renewal within the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration of La Crosse, Wisconsin which led to a divergence of outlook within that Congregation.
From 1976 to 2004, the religious sisters operated the ferry terminal and store on Shaw Island, part of the San Juan Islands in the state of Washington.
[3] The community has thirteen different centers around the world, including the United States, Jerusalem, Rome and Assisi.
