Working for justice and acting for peace since 1812
The Loretto Community
We are the Congregation of the Sisters of Loretto and Loretto Co-members. We work for justice and act for peace because the Gospel urges us.
Living our mission
Our priority concerns are immigration justice, care for Earth and the abolition of nuclear weapons.
Loretto Community members work for justice and act for peace in the United States, at the United Nations and around the world, including in education, healthcare, spiritual accompaniment, the empowerment of women, environmental stewardship, anti-discrimination, land acknowledgement and advocacy.

Outgoing Loretto President Barbara Nicholas, in one of her recent communications, observed that as she was winding down her sixth and final year in the Office of President a quote from I Am the Way, Loretto’s Constitutions, had been particularly meaningful to her: “... we strive to bring the healing Spirit of God into our world and we commit ourselves to improving the conditions of those who suffer from injustice, oppression and deprivation of dignity. In this way, we participate in the church’s mission of proclaiming the transforming love of God.” (#33) These profound and inspiring words, she said, “serve the Loretto Community as a guide for our lives.” Thank you, Barbara, and all Loretto leadership, outgoing and newly elected, for your never-ending efforts to bring these words to life. Let Loretto Be Loretto Forever!
