The Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary (BVMs) are a community of Catholic women religious who, in response to a personal call from God, have chosen a vowed life of prayer, ministry and community. In response to this call, the BVMs express their mission in service to Gods people. We do this today in a variety of ministries that include being educators, advocates for the elderly and underprivileged, hospital and hospice chaplains, prison and parish ministers, and spiritual guides. Currently we minister in more than twenty states and three foreign countries.
