Friends of the Rose Garden Home Mission

Our Mission

Our mission is to financially assist the Franciscan Daughters of Mary in their work of providing assistance, hope and dignity to the poor of Covington by Purchasing, Owning, Maintaining and Developing the properties that house the Rose Garden Mission, the Center for Hope and Healing and also the Formation House of the Franciscan Daughters of Mary. We own and maintain all the Mission's vehicles and equipment, and support the mission's work in various ways, such as assisting with the purchase of diapers and Christmas toys.

Our management of the Mission properties eliminates the need for the sisters to engage in fundraising activities and promotion of their cause. This enables the sisters to devote all their time and attention to their way of life and their ministry of providing hope and help to the underprivileged.

The Friends of the Rose Garden Mission are dedicated to the right to life from conception until natural death for all people and to improving the quality of life of the less fortunate in the Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati area, showing the love of Jesus while providing a haven of hope and free non-judgmental assistance in our support of the apostolic works of the Franciscan Daughters of Mary and management of the Mission's properties and the sister's formations house.

"We are very grateful to the “Friends,” who have a passion for the work Jesus is doing through us at the Rose Garden Home Mission. In our Rule of Life, the Franciscan Daughters of Mary are permitted to own nothing in order that we may be totally free to rely completely on God’s providence to provide for all of our needs. And so, when the prospect of moving into our present location became a reality, the “Friends” took it as their mission to purchase the property for our use. They have enabled us to have a more permanent place to continue helping moms, babies and our needy neighbors for years to come ,as well as to actualize a long awaited dream of opening up a free medical clinic for the uninsured poor.

Thank you for your kindness as you consider assisting the Friends of the Rose Garden Mission in this auspicious endeavor.

You are always in our prayers.
In the heart of Jesus and Mary,
Mother Seraphina Marie, FDM."
