Our own home has been missing something essential.

One of our two boilers suffered a major breakdown that cannot be repaired. After decades of faithful, hidden service, it has simply reached the end of its life. And now the remaining boiler, responsible for warming our bedrooms and the Novitiate where our young Sisters pray and study, is struggling to carry the burden alone.

As the cold months approach, we feel it more each day: our home cannot remain warm on one boiler.

Every household knows these moments, when something breaks, and suddenly comfort depends on the support of others. Mary, our Mother, knew these moments too. In every uncertainty she faced, she relied on the promise and fulfillment of her Son, noticing the needs around her, even the quiet, hidden ones, and responded with love and trust in God’s providence.

This Giving Tuesday, we are inviting you into that same spirit.
Not out of urgency alone, but out of hope.
Not out of fear, but out of faith.
And not out of obligation, but out of a shared desire to keep this house of prayer, service, and formation warm for the Sisters who call it home.

If you feel called to help us replace the failed boiler before winter settles in, your generosity will bring warmth back to the spaces where we rest, pray, and prepare each day to serve others.

Together, we can keep the flame of charity burning bright.

So we ask again, will you help keep our Sisters warm?
