The Little Sisters of the Poor continue the work of Saint Jeanne Jugan. Their Mission is to offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself. Please prayerfully consider supporting the Little Sisters of the Poor in their Mission. Your generosity allows you to walk shoulder to shoulder with the Little Sisters of the Poor, co-creating a better tomorrow for our elderly poor. Your prayers and support for the Little Sisters of the Poor are deeply appreciated. You can read more about their home for the elderly or make a donation online at http://www.littlesistersofthepoorindianapolis.org. Thank you and God Bless you!
