Loretto welcomes you

The Loretto Community

We are the Congregation of the Sisters of Loretto and Loretto Co-members. Since 1812, through education and service to those who are poor, we continue to work for justice and act for peace because the Gospel urges us.

Loretto joins the global community in celebrating the 2026 Season of Creation following the theme “Living Water.” This week we highlight the Community’s ongoing ministry of care for Earth.

The Loretto Carbon Reduction Fund Allocation Committee receives donations from all who wish to support projects within Loretto or projects connected to Loretto that help heal and balance Earth’s natural ecosystems.

The fund was established in honor of Loretto Sister Anthony Mary Sartorius, who, throughout her years as Motherhouse service coordinator, planted countless trees, bushes and flowers at Loretto Motherhouse.

Some grantees from the past include Global Village Children’s Project, Biodiversity for a Livable Climate, Springhouse and Raising Haiti Foundation. Carbon Reduction Fund is notifying 2026 grantees as we speak! Stay tuned for more updates later!
