The Franciscan Sisters of Chicago is a congregation of Catholic women living the Gospel life and dedicated to serving others for more than 113 years. We serve the people of God through works prompted by our charism: care for children, the sick, the infirm, and the elderly; and pastoral and social services. We give witness to the faithful love of God for all of creation through our lives and works. Guided by our Franciscan spirit, we are committed to joyful, compassionate service.

October 4 -- The Feast of St. Francis of Assisi
Peace and all good! Today, we offer the following quote from the Chronicle (journal) of our Community's Foundress, Mother Mary Theresa Dudzik: "I wondered how we could live as Community since we had no permanent home. No doubt, in this instance, we would be following the example of our Holy Father Francis, who also had no permanent home. This thought consoled me and brought me peace of mind."
