Welcome to our blog. Here, we will share with you stories of our lives as Sisters of Providence. We invite Providence Associates to write in this space also. We hope you find these posts enjoyable and inspirational.

Come, Leslie. Come follow this path marked out by Providence

A voice rises up from within the trees:
Are you ready to give your whole life to me?
My eyes shine up at the trees
From under my visor.
They know my answer is yes.

Seeing how accommodating and welcoming the Sisters of Providence were made me proud to be Catholic. Being a part of the community, even for a few days, left a lasting impression on me.

Sister Patty’s dedication, vows and sense of adventure in service has taken her in many directions since that day 70 years ago when she entered Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods.

Listen to the sounds surrounding you. What are you hearing? How is Earth calling to you for action?

Don’t believe anyone who tells you there is no prayer in public school! This teacher is praying all the time!

We sing these songs
to keep remembering
we have bonded …

'We have a wonderful and caring community here.,'

I ask each of you who shares a relationship with us within this Providence Community, "What is your calling now? To what are you committed? And why does that matter?"

We are created in the likeness and image of God who is like a Father.

Providence Associates Suzie Ray and Jane Fischer share 25 things they discovered while volunteering at The Woods earlier this month.

We are excited to represent the Providence Community to be part of Pope Francis' call to address the most urgent needs plaguing Earth and the poor and to take this focus into our daily lives.
