The Little Sisters of the Poor at Queen of Peace Residence have long recognized and appreciated the sacrificial commitment made by so many people in supporting our mission of caring for the elderly poor with dignity and respect. It is only through the steadfast generosity and benevolence of our friends and donors that we are able to deliver our mission on a consistent and quality-centered basis. We are so grateful to all of those who keep us in their prayers and support us throughout the year.

Simply saying thank you to you hardly seems enough. Please be assured that we keep you and your intentions in our daily prayers and in our special Masses for our benefactors’ intentions. We will never lose sight of the fact that you are our trusted and caring partners in the delivery of our mission.

You have made a positive, outstanding difference in the lives of so many of our Residents.

Thank you very much.
