In a tension-filled gathering at Central Middle School, Quincy’s residents voiced their concerns and sought clarity regarding the new migrant shelter, the “Family Welcome Center”, on the Eastern Nazarene College campus. The shelter, which currently houses 58 migrants, mostly of Haitian descent, became a flashpoint when a neo-Nazi group staged a protest. A counter-demonstration by community members quickly followed. As sentiments ranged from welcoming to unwelcoming, Sister Tess Browne, a long-time Quincy resident from Trinidad & Tobago, stepped forward at the public meeting to provide more information about the shelter.

In the picturesque town of Jackson, Kentucky, amidst the Appalachian backdrop, a simple porch became the embodiment of hope and resilience. After historic flooding ravaged Breathitt County, dedicated volunteers from the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth swiftly turned Norma’s modest dream into a beacon of community spirit.

A new form of relationship within the Western Province called Companions of Charity has begun. This is for those who wish to share the SCN charism in a deeper way. 

During the Installation Mass of 2023, the SCN Congregation highlighted the theme “We walk by faith,” championed by Sisters Jackulin Jesu and Amrita Manjaly. In a world riddled with complexities, from the migrant crisis to societal divisions, scripture reminds society to act justly, love tenderly, and walk humbly. As the Congregation charts its spiritual path, the broader call to society emerges: to navigate challenges with faith, love, and humility, trusting always in the Divine’s unwavering guidance.

A new president and vice president of the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth were installed over the weekend at the Motherhouse Campus in Nazareth, Kentucky, ushering in new guidance and leadership for the Congregation’s next five years. Sister Jackulin Jesu and Sister Amrita Manjaly were formally installed during a prayer ritual on Saturday, Aug. 26, and will take office in September.
