Adorers have consistently served in geographical and economic situations where resources for ministry were scarce. Your support of our "home missions" will enable ASCs to continue serving in inner city schools, on reservations, with migrant families needing health care, language skills or catechesis, and reaching out to the frail elderly. |

| Sisters' Retirement
|
Our current median age is 76. The cost of care for our retired sisters is partially covered by Social Security and pension income. The remainder comes from our reserves, along with contributions from our generous benefactors. It is a well-established fact that sisters have a long life span. The powerhouse of prayer that rises like incense from our retirement centers in Wichita, Kan., Columbia, Pa., and Ruma, Ill., is our gift to you, our loyal and generous benefactors.
