Communities

Chicago Province Divine Word Missionaries live and work in either districts or communities. We have eight communities, located in Techny, Ill.; Bordentown, N.J.; Boston; Chicago; East Troy, Wis.; Epworth, Iowa; Miramar, Mass.; and Washington, D.C.

Those of us who live in the communities often assist parish priests, but we are not officially connected with a parish. Our ministries are varied and include communications, pastoral outreach, working for non-governmental agencies and social justice organizations, higher education, providing biblical and theological education, and hospital and hospice chaplaincy.
