Holy Child Ministries

When Cornelia Connelly founded the Society of the Holy Child Jesus in 1846, she established a religious congregation that is responsive to the needs of the time or in her own words, "meets the wants of the age." And for more than 150 years, the Sisters of the Holy Child have been lighting the way for thousands of individuals through education, legal, and social services through innovative education, legal, and social services.

Cornelia believed in encouraging all to be themselves but to “make that self just what Our Lord wants it to be.” As a result, the ministries of the Sisters of the Holy Child are diverse and reflect each Sister’s individual gifts and talents. Today, serving across four continents, nearly 400 Sisters of the Holy Child carry out their mission in many ways—as teachers, spiritual leaders, health care professionals, lawyers, social workers, parish administrators, and pastoral care workers, to name just a few. In addition, the Society of the Holy Child Jesus sponsors the ministries below:
