A PRAYER FOR FEBRUARY
BY KATIE HIGGINS, ASSISTANT VICE PRESIDENT OF MISSION
|
Loving God,
May we sing of your goodness each day,
in union with one another and all of creation.
In word and deed,
may our lives proclaim our hope and trust in You.
May Your all-embracing love echo in us
and ring out to all the world.
Amen.

The Sisters of the Humility of Mary’s Healthcare Ministry
by Mary Cay Doherty
A comprehensive history of the Sisters’ healthcare ministry would require a book-length manuscript—so great were their contributions. This article, then, purports only to provide a snapshot of the Sisters’ role in opening four facilities that continue to meet the needs of people in the Youngstown, Warren, Cleveland, and Lorain communities today. As our story closes, we will also look at healthcare collaboration between the Sisters of the Humility of Mary and the Sisters of Mercy and the Sisters of Bon Secours.
