Our Mission

To give joyful witness to love: the love of God, of one another, and of all persons.

A New Pope!

Message from Sister Margaret Mary Fitzpatrick who is in Rome

As this smoke rises to the heavens, may our contemplative prayers and active presence transform the world with hope. We are so happy to share with Pope Leo XIV a ministry with the people in Chiclayo.

Message from Sister Mary Anne Foster

Sister Martha and I are spreading the word about our newly elected Pope Leo XIV. As the Archbishop of Chiclayo, he was very present to us, especially during our 50th Anniversary celebration. He is very encouraging of the laity to take their rightful place in the church. He is a humble and very wise man. The people of Chiclayo loved him and were sorry to see him move to Rome. They are once again very excited.

Here is the translation of the letter to the Sisters of Charity in the 50th anniversary booklet for Chiclayo

Vincent's Way

Vincentians believe that true religion is found among the poor, and that as we attend to their needs, they inspire us and evangelize us.

Sisters of Charity Federation at the United Nations

Who are we to praise thee —
But we call on all thy creation to praise thee —
the birds of the air, the inhabitants of the earth, and the depths of the sea, the mountains
and the valleys, and whatever thou hast made to praise, to bless, to declare thy glory.

Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton
