Providing HOPE to patients and caregivers

“It’s here at A Caring Place that I see the face of God on every face. I experience God’s presence in the laughter of our participants, in their courage in the face of adversity, in their spirited singing of the spirituals and in the sharing of their life stories. I have learned so much from our participants. I have also been privileged to work with a wonderful, caring team of persons,” said Sister Susan Dinnin, program director of A Caring Place, in the latest issue of HOPE.

Sister Susan’s adult day services ministry is just one of the articles that addresses the spirituality of health care. In this issue you’ll meet Sister Betty Hopf, chaplain at the Hux Cancer Center in Terre Haute, Ind. You’ll also be introduced to Sister Mary Jo Piccione who says that nursing and chaplaincy have been a blessing and a gift to her.

Of course, in this issue you will find the usual items of interest — alumnae news, obituaries, partners in our mission, the photo album, upcoming events and much, much more!
