Multimedia videos provide insight into how contemporary women dedicate their lives to God and to service of people and creation - to make the world more whole for all.
About Me:
As a community we are fully committed to the service of women and children and are present and involved both nationally and internationally in matters surrounding human trafficking, social justice and housing for the poor and homeless. We have formed alliances with other religious groups and various organizations to strengthen our response to these needs and are members of "UNANAMI International an NGO (non-governmental agency) with membership status in the United Nations where we have a strong voice in matters of oppression.
Our community and its individual members are a vital force in improving our world. The life of a Bon Secours Sister is a life of community, prayer and service to the needs of a world crying out for healing, compassion and liberation. We are a close group of dedicated women with a call to serve God and humanity in meaningful and resourceful ways. Our life together affords us time for prayer and renewal and much support both in friendship and resources to make a difference in the world. Our community members recognize and give value to each each other and our individual gifts.
We invite you to call us toll free at 1-877-742-0277 to learn more about us and to discuss your personal goals.
