The Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary (Soeurs des Saints Noms de Jésus et de Marie) is a teaching religious institute founded at Longueuil, Québec, Canada, in 1843 by Blessed Mother Marie Rose Durocher for the Christian education of young girls.

Their motto is: "Jésus et Marie, Ma Force et Ma Gloire" ("Jesus and Mary, my strength and my glory").

Since 1843, the SNJM's mission to educate young girls has extended beyond Québec into other Canadian provinces, including Ontario and Manitoba. Their mission of education also continues internationally, in the United States, Lesotho, and South America.

Within the United States, the sisters have established ministries in California, Oregon, Florida, Mississippi, New York, the Mid-Atlantic states and Washington among other states.
