In the December episode of Generative Spirits, we recognize and remember the 40th anniversary of the murder of four Churchwomen in El Salvador.

Conversations explore a wide range of topics, including racial justice, the call to lifelong service and how to cultivate community amid a pandemic that requires social distance and isolation.

The Sisters on the Frontlines initiative led by FADICA, GHR Foundation and others, inspired a second pilot program in Northeast Ohio, with $1,000 grants for more than 60 sisters in congregations across the Cleveland, Akron and Youngstown areas.

The Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland has joined other funders across the country to support Catholic sisters in their response to the immediate needs of communities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A majority of funding in first and second quarters supported response efforts to basic needs support following COVID-19, as well as sustained focus on SOCF’s core strategic areas of homelessness and Catholic sister ministry.

Sunday, March 8 is International Women’s Day, which marks the first day of Catholic Sisters Week 2020.
