Saint Jeanne Jugan and the Little Sisters of the Poor

Today, 30 August, the Church celebrates the memory of Saint Jeanne Jugan, foundress of the Little Sisters of the Poor. The Little Sisters of the Poor have a ministry of giving compassionate care to elderly men and woman who have outlived their resources, and their reputation for doing so is excellent.

The sisters have these three residences in New England:

Saint Joseph’s Residence, Enfield, CT

Jeanne Jugan Residence, Somerville, MA

Jeanne Jugan Residence, Pawtucket, RI
