Sisters of Life Ready to

'Walk With Moms' at St. Philip Neri

The Good Newsroom

March 20, 2024



"Two Sisters of Life and about a dozen volunteers spent a long morning on March 12 preparing the Sisters’ 'Mommy Storeroom,' a new facet of community engagement by the Catholic Education and Family Center at St. Philip Neri in the Bronx. 


...The project places the church and its adjoining school at the center of the community, and provides space and opportunity for related organizations, such as Catholic Charities and the Sisters of Life, to offer services on a localized basis.

St. Philip Neri has made a supply area in the church basement available to the Sisters of Life, who will use the space to support their "Walking with Moms in Need' program with the Mommy Storeroom, a central site according to Sister Maria Frassati, S.V.


The Mommy Storeroom is 'a way to meet the great need in the Bronx,' what Sister Maria described as a 'great thirst' for assistance, and helping to create 'a culture of life everywhere.'


The Storeroom will kick off officially at a St. Philip Neri community event set for April 13...


The Sisters were assisted by local volunteers, students from St. Philip Neri School, and also students from Steubenville visiting on their spring break...


Unlike some maternal support organizations, which offer clothing and supplies for mothers, babies, and toddlers, the Sisters intend to provide items for children as old as 14. Items including girls’ shoes, toddler to youth, boys’ shoes, toddler to youth, and baby carriers currently top the Sisters’ request list, along with gift cards from major retailers that allow mothers to purchase items not held in the Storeroom or regularly donated, according to Sister Maria.


Cardinal John J. O’Connor, then the Archbishop of New York, founded the Sisters of Life in 1991, after publishing an article in Catholic New York entitled “Help Wanted: Sisters of Life.” Eight sisters founded the new order on June 1, 1991, which has now grown to more than 100 sisters serving in 10 cities in the United States and Canada..."
