Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods
A community of vowed Catholic women religious, we joyfully live out the radical Gospel message of love, mercy and justice in today’s world. Inspired by our foundress Saint Mother Theodore Guerin, we are passionate about our lives of prayer, education, service and advocacy. We dedicate ourselves to helping those who might otherwise be forgotten.
“How magnificent is the setting sun, which found me every evening in the same spot like a faithful courier!”
