Partnering in Ministry
Partnership allows us to continue to respond to the needs of society through the ministries we began in the 19th century.
Mission Integration
This office works with all sponsored institutions to promote leadership education. Mission Integration director, Sister Jean Moore, hosts an annual Sponsorship Conference and sends key leaders to Assisi for a leadership pilgrimage.
About Partnership
The Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration partner with others in carrying out the mission of Jesus as stated in our Constitutions,
"...to manifest God's love in the world; to bring new life, meaning and hope to a suffering and searching humanity, to heal with compassion and forgiveness, and to proclaim the Gospel in word and action."
Through sponsorship, we continue to influence the publicly incorporated institutions we founded or acquired in ways that further the mission of both FSPA and the institutions themselves.
The FSPA assessment of Catholic identity and mission is published in We Are Called! How Can We Respond?(pdf)
