How We Serve

“Do not stand idle waiting for God to provide for you. The abilities that God has given to you are your first Providence. God helps those who help themselves.”
~St. Ludovico of Casoria

We take these words of Saint Ludovico and put them into practice as we serve throughout the world and within the United States. Our Elderly Sisters and Infirm Sisters serve the Church through their prayers.
