Martha Ministry Stories
Ministry engages Sisters of St. Martha in concrete service that flows from the Mission of Jesus. Their mission as Marthas calls them to hear, embrace, and respond to the cries of Gospel Hospitality. Service can be expressed in many forms, such as prayer, suffering, pastoral, spiritual, educational and social, to name some.
