Society of the Holy Child Jesus - American Province The Society of the Holy Child Jesus - American Province provides educational, spiritual and healing,

The Society of the Holy Child Jesus (SHCJ) is an international community of Roman Catholic Sisters founded by Cornelia Connelly in 1846. Cornelia established a religious congregation that is responsive to the needs of the times, or in Cornelia's own words, "meet the wants of the age." Today, through education, social programs, and partnerships, nearly 400 Sisters of the Holy Child continue Cornelia's legacy and the Society's mission of helping others to believe that God lives and acts in them and in our world. The Sisters also help hundreds of people develop their own gifts and talents so that they can find good jobs, break the cycle of poverty, and provide for their families.

25th Anniversary of September 11: We remember with love and compassion all those whose lives were forever changed by that day; grieve with those who still mourn; and draw strength from those who bravely responded.

Gracious God, help us to learn from the courage and compassion of others, to carry their memory in our hearts, and to trust ever more deeply in your unfailing love.

In The News! Sister Marlene Brownett, SHCJ, is featured in the National Catholic Reporter article "Women recall behind-the-scenes work for Archbishop Sheen, ahead of beatification." A close friend of the Archbishop, Sister Marlene also served on the board of the Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen Foundation. Archbishop Sheen will be beatified on September 24, 2026, in St. Louis.

Behind Sheen's reach stood a largely unknown group of women who opened letters, recorded donations, thanked contributors, and helped transform his words into material support for missionaries and young churches.
