To highlight Catholic Sisters’ presence in western Pennsylvania for over a century, the Sisters of Divine Providence, in collaboration with 16 congregations of Catholic Sisters, began a month-long billboard campaign featuring Catholic Sisters in ministry, inviting all to “Pray. Act. Be the Change.”

Showing glimpses of Catholic Sisters living their missions of peace, mercy and compassion, the billboards ran from February 11 through March 11 during National Catholic Sisters week. Stories behind the images were shared on the collaborative website, where resources were available for persons inspired to action through prayer, service and support of efforts that align with the change they hope to see in the world. The Sisters also engaged in a collaborative social media campaign using the hashtags #PrayActChange and #NCSW.

The project’s intent was to inspire others through increasing the visibility of Catholic Sisters as they continue to serve as leaders, collaborators and advocates for peace, justice and care for creation.
