Memorials and Tributes

"So when we give ourselves to planting and nurturing love here on earth, our efforts will reach out beyond our own chronological existence."
Henri J. M. Nouwen

Memorials and tribute gifts afford an opportunity to invest in the future of the good works of the Sisters of Divine Providence while honoring or remembering your loved ones.

Providence Book Enrollment
Enrollment in the Providence Book remembers a loved one, friend or associate who has died. Enrollment also honors an event such as a graduation, birth, marriage and anniversary or for the healing intentions of those who are ill. All enrollees and donors are remembered in a special liturgy that is celebrated on the second Sunday of each month in Visitation Chapel and in prayer by all Sisters throughout the Marie de la Roche Province in the United States and the Caribbean. A card is sent to the person(s) of your choice acknowledging your gift to the Sisters of Divine Providence. Donate Today to enroll. No minimum donation amount is required.

Adopt a Tree
Provide a living tribute through a donation of $850 to the Adopt a Tree program. Adoption of a tree on the Providence Heights grounds includes a plaque with the name of the person being honored or remembered, your inscription and the tree type. Walking the grounds provides all who visit an opportunity to reflect on God’s expression of love as seen through the earth’s resources. Your adoption of a tree will help the Sisters to replant, preserve and care for the property that has been home to them since 1927.

Name a Bench
For a donation of $2,000, a handsome, 4-foot, recycled plastic bench with black powder-coated cast aluminum frame pays tribute to a loved one. Each bench, installed on the Providence Heights grounds, is beautifully engraved with high-gloss lettering. This lasting memorial honors your loved one while acknowledging the mission of the Sisters of Divine Providence.
