“What we are doing through Mission Outreach is not new for the Hospital Sisters. Rather it is a more visible symbol of our long missionary spirit that is the foundation of our ministry – helping those in need throughout the world. It is our goal that those who join us in these efforts are reminded that every Christian is called to continue the healing ministry of Jesus” - Paul C. Brown
