Over 146 years of stories, headlines and photos

Our pioneer Sisters came to Holyoke in 1873 as members of another community from Kingston, Ont., Canada. In 1892, we became incorporated as the Sisters of Providence, an independent congregation in the Springfield Diocese.

Our History

Community is based on the mutual recognition of the rights and needs of others. Our love can grow only when we meet and are present to each other in honesty, mutual respect and trust.

- Mother Mary Loretto Donovan
