Giving to those in need what they could be gaining from their own initiative may well be the kindest way to destroy people.
ABOUT US
We often think of Charity As an Action. But we think of Charity as a State Of The Heart.
IN OUR OWN TIME, an age characterized by efficiency and computerization, the face of humanity, suffering and loneliness easily becomes obscured. The reality of human pain and misery may be lost in the midst of an impersonal world. The Ladies of Charity, recognizing this lack of human awareness, seek every opportunity to make Christ present by serving the material and spiritual needs of the sick, the poor and the marginalized of our society.
The Association, in response to prayer and mutual sharing, seeks to be open to the call fo Christ through the Church. Throughout our 400 year history, the LOC continues to advocate to change the systems that hold those we serve in the various faces of poverty. Today there are 6,400 members in the U.S. and 200,000 members worldwide in 54 countries.
