Laudato Si’ — Caring for Our Common Home
Learn about the Sisters of Charity of New York’s multi-year commitment to the Laudato Si’ Action Platform (LSAP ) and the relationship between caring for our common home and caring for those who live on the planet, especially those who live in poverty.

Sisters of Charity in Retirement Continue to Serve
After decades of service to others, some would find the prospect of “retirement” as a welcome time for rest. For a Sister of Charity, retirement often means an opportunity to find new ways to serve.

Sisters of Charity Rebuilding Lives of Love – 200th Anniversary, 2017
On August 13, 1817, Elizabeth Ann Seton sent three Sisters to New York to serve the growing number of orphans resulting from the cholera epidemic and the poverty of the newly arrived immigrants. For 200 years we have seen and recognized the needs of each generation. The Sisters of Charity, the city, the state, and the Church have grown together over these two hundred years. What joy and cause for rejoicing are the stories that can be told! It is our hope that together we may continue to reveal God’s love to those in need, especially those on the margins. YouTube

POTS & The Sisters of Charity of New York
Part of the Solutions, or POTS, was opened in a storefront on Fordham Road in 1982 by Fr. Ned Murphy, SJ, Tim Boon, and Sister Jane Iannucelli, SC, (current Preident of the Sisters of Charity) to help feed those living in poverty in the Bronx. This video reflects on the beginning of the soup kitchen and the many who immediately stepped forward to lend their assistance to the new ministry. This video also recalls the tremendous collaboration of religious and laity that helped make POTS the success it is today. YouTube
