Catholic News Service

The mission of Catholic News Service is the mission of the Church itself -- to spread the Gospel through contemporary means of communication. Our mission is to perform this task by reporting the news which affects Catholics in their everyday lives. Some of that news is good and some is bad, but it is what readers need to know in order to work for salvation. They need to know that there are saints in the making in the Church today and they need to know that there are sinners too. Our mission is to report fully, fairly and freely about the involvement of the Church in the world today. For more information visit: www.catholicnews.com

Franciscan Handmaids

The Congregation of the Franciscan Handmaids of the Most Pure Heart of Mary was founded in Savannah, Georgia in 1916 by the Reverend Ignatius Lissner, SMA and Mother Mary Theodore. In 1923 Cardinal Hayes invited the Sisters to staff the St. Benedict's Day Nursery in Harlem. The next year the invitation was extended to the entire Congregation to relocate to the Archdiocese of New York. From their Mother-house in Central Harlem the Sisters go forth to bring the Good News of God's love by lives of dedication and the practice of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy including teaching, pastoral ministry catechetics. In all of their endeavors they strive to promote respect for life and the dignity of all men and women, and to be God's instruments of peace bringing love, pardon, faith hope, light and joy to all of our brothers and sisters. Although the membership and ministry of the Congregation are open to all peoples the primary thrust is still evangelization in the African American community, therefore, they work closely with the Office of Black Catholic Ministry of the Archdiocese of New York. According to their Mission Statement, the Sisters "… are committed to joyful evangelization and empowerment of people especially those experiencing discrimination."
