The financial challenges are so different than in years gone by, yet the sisters remain committed to ministries among women, children and the poor and marginalized.

Too many of us have childishly focused on the discipline we received as children, (and which our parents approved)and too little attention to the culture changing nature of the works and its impact on our society.<br /Mary Jo & Peter Dawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09902096299440759446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7470781729941761069.post-4781212411544296422012-12-04T09:41:26.787-05:002012-12-04T09:41:26.787-05:00Saint Mother Theodore Guerin, foundress of the Sis...Saint Mother Theodore Guerin, foundress of the Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Ind., is in the litany of saints.
