Join hands to uplift lives in our community

Ways to Support Our Mission

Join us in living our charism of being

"merciful, joyous and poor, doing works of neighborly love."

Our neighbors are not just the people living nearest us. Whether you live down the block or on another continent, you are our Spiritual Neighbor, and we welcome you to our campus and to this online home of the Franciscan Sisters of the Sacred Heart. We seek to bring hope and a sense of community to all who visit us, whether in person or virtually. 

Visit our online home often as we will strive to continually bring you new resources, programs, and spiritual food for thought. Come to our campus to experience the programs and services here, but also the wooded trails and sacred places we offer for personal prayer, reflection and refreshment of body, mind and spirit.

"Let us begin to serve the Lord God, for up until now we have done little or nothing."

(1 Celano 103)
