Sisters of Charity of New York
Now in our third century of living lives of love.
The Sisters of Charity of New York is a community of Roman Catholic women religious who share in the ongoing mission of Jesus. We do so by responding to the signs of the times in the spirit of Saints Elizabeth Ann Seton, Vincent de Paul and Louise de Marillac. We strive to reveal God’s love in our lives and in our varied ministries with and for all in need, especially those living in poverty.
In Memoriam
“O my Soul, there is a Heaven! There is a Savior! There is a pure and perfect felicity under the shadow of his wings. There is rest from our labors, peace from our enemies, freedom from our Sins. There we shall be always joyful-always beholding the presence of Him, who has purchased and prepared for us this unutterable glory. “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in Me.” – Elizabeth Seton to Cecilia Seton, November 19, 1802.

Vision
Our Summer 2026 issue of Vision centers on a simple but urgent truth: Love Must Win Out. It’s the Only Thing That Can.
Inspired by the witness of the Delaney Hall Hospitality Tent in Newark, this issue highlights how the Sisters of Charity, Associates, ministry partners, and friends continue to accompany those on the margins with compassion, courage, and hope. Inside you’ll find stories of solidarity with immigrant families, reflections from Sr. Donna Dodge, a look back at the enduring legacy of St. Vincent’s Hospital, updates from our ministries, and examples of how the spirit of Charity continues to transform lives through service, advocacy, education, and care for creation.
As we continue our journey into our third century, these stories remind us that the mission lives on wherever people choose love over fear and welcome over exclusion.
