                        The Loretto Community

                        Picture
                        The Loretto Volunteer Program is a ministry of the Loretto Community - a Catholic order of vowed sisters and lay co-members who have worked for justice and peace since their founding in 1812. 

                        The sisters and co-members of Loretto are a rich resource -- providing friendship and companionship to volunteers throughout their terms of service and beyond.  They serve as role models by their lives of strong, faithful action.  Lorettos have been pioneering educators since their founding.  In more recent decades, they have been pioneers for other forms of social justice as well: supporting farm workers, women on the U.S./Mexico border, anti-war movements, sister communities in Ghana and Guatemala, a new mission in Pakistan, and more. 

                        The sisters and co-members of Loretto are glad to welcome volunteers into the greater Loretto family.  To learn more about the community, visit their website.
