In reflecting on my life and the profound impact that Catholic health care and the dedicated work of Catholic sisters have had on my journey, I find it fitting to introduce Carith Ministries, an organization born last year from a rich tapestry of experiences rooted in compassion, care and community service.
The inspiration for Carith Ministries emerged from a powerful conversation I had in 2008 with Sr. Mary Caritas of the Sisters of Providence. Her words resonated deeply: “Finance person, you need to preserve the footprint of the Catholic post-acute ministry.” By addressing me as “finance person,” not only was she referring to my role in finance at the time, but she was also trying to tell me that financial stewardship needed to be embraced to maintain and preserve the Catholic identity.
