Worship is the purpose of this chapel – to respond to God’s unconditional love through beauty, music, words, actions. The chapel is the center of liturgical celebration and of community prayer for the Sisters. The Ancilla Domini Chapel is open to all who visit The Center at Donaldson.

In late 2021 the Poor Handmaid Provincial Leadership Team presented the new Vision that would lead the congregation into the future. It was developed by Poor Handmaid Sisters through discussions, prayer, and discernment. As the Vision is implemented throughout the ministries, check back for stories and inspiration.

This monthly opportunity is for anyone who needs to lay down stress and re-center themselves. Come for a mostly unstructured time of still-ness, prayer, creative reflection, time in nature with optional spiritual direction.

We Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ and all who partner with us in the work of the Spirit commit to promoting inclusive community that recognizes and values the inherent worth and dignity of each person. As a congregation of women religious in partnership with many others we advocate and practice equity, diversity, and inclusion as the touchstones of the right relationships that describe justice for all aspects of creation, the human as well as the other-than-human.
