Empowering Communities
We, the Brothers of St. John of God, are called to witness to the people of God by our charism of hospitality, through a community of faith and a compassionate service to God’s sick and poor. The Order is assisting more people worldwide today than ever before in its 500-year history. However, we recognise that we cannot handle this responsibility alone.
The St. John of God family is a diverse one, encompassing Brothers, coworkers, service users and their families, volunteers, benefactors, and friends of the Order. What unifies this family and fuels our commitment to continue the work initiated by St. John of God, is his vision of providing healing, care, and hospitality to those in need.
Your direct donations and the gift of prayer actively support and participate in our ministry. You are an integral part of the St. John of God family.
We extend an invitation to you to walk closely with us and share in our mission. Please return and visit us often.
