While many of the participants in the work of Sister Parish Ministry, Inc. are members of Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, mission trips and other Ministry activities have been hosted by several Catholic parishes as well as by other (primarily Catholic) families and organizations.  In addition, the Ministry includes participation by a few Baptists, some Methodists, more than one Episcopalian, some evangelicals, and people with no particular faith affiliation. We are from all walks of life. We are mothers, fathers, students, doctors, nurses, lawyers, entrepreneurs, and construction professionals. Most of us speak no Spanish. We are united by a desire to serve, a desire to make a difference in the world.
