About the Company

The Sisters of the Presentation offers a positive, inspirited, growth-oriented work environment reflected in their spirit of hospitality. We are Catholic women called by God to a vowed commitment of living the Gospel through prayer, service, and community. Our community consists of over 80 vowed members. We minister in 10 states, the District of Columbia, and Bolivia serving in various ministries such as pastoral ministry, social services, affordable housing, advocacy, immigration services, spirituality, education, healthcare, counseling and more. We share in the vision of our foundress, Nano Nagle, who dared to dream of a better world and devoted her life to lighting the way for the lost, the sick, the elderly and the marginalized. We are called to evangelize, offering hope and love to our broken world by incarnating the hospitality of God, confronting injustice and working for peace.
