Flourishing Sisterhood

This episode features Sr. Jane Remson, a member of the Congregation of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Sr. Jane grew up in a unique New Orleans Catholic community during the 1940s, and discerned her call to religious life straight out of high school. Passionate about the care and concern for all of God’s creation, she has dedicated her ministry to developing solutions to global and local issues of hunger, poverty, and illness. Since the year 2000, her co-founding of and directorial position at the Carmelite Non-Governmental Organization has increased her influence within these fields.

The Flourishing Sisterhood Project is supported by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation’s Catholic Sisters Initiative. The podcast is produced by the Loyola Institute for Ministry and retained by the university’s Digital Humanities Archive.
