The Sisters of Charity-Halifax is an international organization of more than 500 members, based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Sisters now serve across Canada, the Eastern United States, Bermuda, the Dominican Republic and Peru. The charism of the Sisters of Charity-Halifax is rooted in the tradition of Saints Elizabeth Ann Seton, Vincent de Paul and Louise de Marillac. From four Sisters arriving in Halifax in 1849 grew a congregation of vibrant, dynamic women teaching, healing, loving, risking, praying, supporting each other, serving the church. 2, record 1, English, - Sisters%20of%20Charity%2DHalifax
