ORIGINS

The Sisters’ presence was requested by Archbishop Samuel Stritch to assist Italian immigrants in east Milwaukee as well as at St. Camillus Hospital in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.

Five Sisters were sent to the United States. Sister Monica Tarantola was the Superior of the new community.

They worked at St Camilo’s Hospice in Wauwatosa – 1954.

Currently, the North American province has 35 Sisters.
Two Sisters fulfil an apostolate in Santa Fe, New Mexico in the poorest diocese in the United States.
