Loretto Chooses Love
Posted on February 9, 2020, by Loretto Community
“Love one another, have only one heart, one soul, one mind,” reads a line from the Morning Manna once recited by Loretto sisters at the end of Mass. Now all Loretto Community members carry this loving call deep in their hearts.
Loretto responds to the power of love from God by saying yes to the neighbor. We embrace the great Commandment to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. Our response to living out the power of love becomes visibly tangible through the carrying out of our diverse ministries, including education; care for women, children and the elderly; our lobbying efforts on behalf of the voiceless; earth advocacy; assistance to immigrants/refugees; work with the rural poor; the promotion of peace; counseling and spiritual direction; outreach and so much more.
