Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word

The Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word originated in Lyons, France, and was established in Galveston (1866), then moved to San Antonio (1869) by its founder, Claude Marie Dubuis, bishop of Galveston, whose diocese at that time comprised the entire state of Texas.
We are a Congregation of women religious of different ages, with diverse gifts and talents. Our mission is to actualize the saving and healing love of Jesus, the Incarnate Word.
