Little Sisters of the Assumption Family in Mission - Connected by a desire to transform our world

We are one family, bonded together and sent to change conditions that breed poverty, injustice, discrimination and marginalization.

We care for one another. Caring gives birth to covenant relationships ―empathy, friendship, tenderness, compassion, mercy, unconditional love and deep respect.

The power of growth is in relationship where in every encounter we are both giver and receiver. We value ‘power with’ vs ‘power over’

Belief in the capacity to rise beyond one’s struggles.

Our Spirituality leads to personal transformation and transformation of the world.

We live what we believe that we are sent to those who have neither voice nor influence in this world.

Guided by the values of love and empathy, driven by a spirit of service, and sustained by hope, the Little Sisters of the Assumption have walked alongside working-class families and individual people in the United States since 1891. This is the story of the courageous women who carried their mission across the Atlantic, of the generations of Sisters who nurtured its flame with quiet fidelity, and of the six Little Sisters who continue to bear its light today, joined by lay members and friends whose hearts are united in the shared mission of compassionate service.

When I read the mission statement of the Little Sisters of the Assumption, I found it expressed my own sentiments when it said, “We bring together the least advantaged and the privileged in a spirit of family to inspire everyone to participate in creating a just society.”
