Motherhouse

Faith
6
Built in 1900 and designed by architect Alfred Giles, the Motherhouse of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word housed the convent, novitiate, and College and Academy of the Incarnate Word. Here the Sisters lived, prayed, and worked, and it was the home to which they returned from the missions. In 1988, the Motherhouse was razed to make way for a new ministry of the Congregation, the Incarnate Word Retirement Center, now known as the Village at Incarnate Word.
