Ministries

In the Province of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, our roots run deep. As with the founding ministries of St. Vincent de Paul and St. Louise de Marillac, our first ministries in the western states sprang to life as a call to action in the 1850s. Through the years, we built and staffed orphanages, schools, and medical facilities. The ministries adapted to the changing needs of their communities, and many of the original ministries continue to thrive today.

We continue that tradition of responding to current needs by listening with our hearts and inspiring others to partner with us in our mission.
