Effective June 13, 2022: Our local COVID rates have significantly improved; Westmoreland County is in the GREEN status. Due to these changes, all fully vaccinated and boosted staff and visitors no longer are required to wear a mask.

Thank you for your patience and accommodations while we continue to navigate through these times. The safety of our Sisters and staff is our priority.

The Sisters of Charity of Seton Hill, trusting in the providence of God, find ourselves at a graced crossroads. The United States Province affirms the 2019 General Chapter Statement, and will:

  • Intensify, for the sake of the apostolate, our efforts to grow in the knowledge and love of Jesus Christ through fidelity to contemplative prayer, meditation on sacred scripture and spiritual reading (Constitutions, Article 34).
  • Explore ways to enable all Sisters in the United States Province to embrace the physical, spiritual, psychological, and intellectual challenges of the next five years.
  • Develop strategic actions for education and advocacy to address the critical needs of poor and vulnerable populations.
  • Focus on causes and effects of the racial divide and the exploitation of the environment on the whole of creation.
  • Strengthen and extend collaborative partnerships, particularly with those organizations and persons that share the Vincentian-Setonian charism, most importantly the Sisters of Charity Federation.
