Does anyone know of a community of religious sisters that work with at-risk children and/or teens?

Thanks!

I have an aspirant for one of our proposed charisms which will be an off-shoot of yet another proposed charism.

The Sisters of the Transfiguration and Holy Wounds (STHW) will be started by the Congregation of Charity of the Miraculous Medal, Servants of the Poor (CCMMs). Here are the websites:

I have started a CCMM Aspirants yahoo group, so anyone SERIOUSLY interested in them may contact me. I have already set the first few aspirants onto their apostolates in their localities.

Once the CCMMs come together as a community, they will continue their apostolates here locally.

Then, when we have enough workers for the STHW, time will be taken from their weekly schedules to meet as a group on a regular basis (Friday evening through Sunday noon) to discuss making the new foundation.

I hope everyone can follow that.

Blessings,
Gemma
