The Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods are a community of vowed Catholic women religious. Inspired by our foundress Saint Mother Theodore Guerin, we are passionate about our lives of prayer, education, service and advocacy.
Spirituality and justice go hand-in-hand. We are committed to walking with those on the margins. Join us on our journey to make Earth better for all.
We all need a little spiritual inspiration sometimes. Let the wisdom of our Providence Community support you on your journey.
From the moment you step onto the grounds at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, you know you're somewhere special. There's something for everyone at the Woods.
Reconnect or find new opportunities with the Providence Community. Volunteer in one of our many ministries, be an intern on the farm, explore job opportunities or reminisce about your alma mater.
Live joyfully! Single, Catholic women ages 18-42 are invited to explore a fulfilling life as a Sister of Providence. All women and men of faith are invited to join the family of Providence as Providence Associates.

Story
My Irish Mother introduced me to devotion to Mary the day I was born by naming me Marie Louise. She had a great and lifelong devotion to Mary and was happy when our teachers, the Sisters of Providence, referred to her as Our Lady of Providence.
Sister Ann Paula Pohlman currently ministers at the motherhouse in activities, where she enjoys planning gatherings and other fun things for the sisters' enjoyment. Prior to this she ministered in Florida for 25 years.
