Carmel Community Living

The Loretto Community, consisting of the congregation of the Sisters of Loretto and Loretto Co-members, has been working for justice and acting for peace since its founding in 1812. With a mission grounded in the Gospel, their priority concerns include immigration justice, care for the Earth, and the abolition of nuclear weapons. They serve in various fields such as education, healthcare, spiritual accompaniment, women's empowerment, environmental stewardship, and advocacy, both in the United States and around the world.

The heart of their community lies in the Motherhouse, which houses the Heritage Center and Archives, showcasing their rich history. They also have retreat centers that provide welcoming and reflective spaces for individuals and groups. Additionally, they have a working farm and land, and their global reach extends to missions and partnerships in Pakistan, Ghana, and Guatemala. The Loretto Community is dedicated to making a positive impact and creating a more just and peaceful world.
