The Ladies of Charity of St. Michael's was organized by a group of women from the parish in 1938 and is open to any woman who is a member of St. Michaels or of the surrounding community. Ladies of Charity joyfully proclaim the Good News through: Works: performing the works of justice and mercy, feeding the hungry, giving drink to the thirsty while advocating to alleviate poverty Words: announcing with deep conviction God’s presence, love and mercy for all Relationships: being with people who live on the margins, working with and for them, while forming communities of love and care * The Ladies of Charity are associations of women who participate in the Vincentian mission of prayer and service. Our special concern is the needs of women and children, the elderly and the poor. * https://aic.ladiesofcharity.us/files/2009/05/LCUSA-Brochure-20
