What types of ministry are the Sisters involved in?
Our ministry is based on a holistic vision of healthcare. We began as “Visiting Nurses” who cared for people in their homes when they were ill, ministering to all the needs of a family, cooking, cleaning, and caring for the children as well as supervision of the person who was ill. Today, we sponsor the Holy Redeemer Health System which operates a large community hospital, acute care nursing home, an independent, assisted living and acute care nursing home, a residence for low-income senior citizens, Home Care Services, and Drueding Center/Project Rainbow which is a residence for homeless women and their children. Most of the Sisters minister within the Holy Redeemer Health System in a variety of ways, ensuring that the vision of Mother Alphonse Maria is continued. Some of our Sisters are involved in ministries outside of the Health System, but which still embrace the vision of Mother Alphonse Maria.
