It is through the ministries of the Sisters of St. Francis of Penance and Christian Charity that the poor and underprivileged receive compassion and care. With the help of donors and volunteers, like yourself, the Sisters' ministries have been successful in elevating the impoverished and indigent to better lives. Their outreach touches the lives of the poor, elderly, disabled, homeless, spiritually deprived and otherwise disadvantaged. It is the mission of the Marycrest Development Office to help obtain funds and friends for the Sisters of St. Francis. Development work builds a sense of community, friendship, commitment and spiritual bonding.
Financial support is just one of the rewards.
Over the years, the Sisters of St. Francis have worked in schools and hospitals receiving little, if any, financial compensation for their work. Volunteers help with every program and play a very large part of the successes seen. Back to Top Needs You can learn about many of the Sister's ministries through this web site. All of these programs welcome volunteers and donations. Capital maintenance and renovations are often needed.
