About the Sisters of Compassion Group -Kōrero Whakapapa
The Sisters of Compassion, also known as the Daughters of Our Lady of Compassion, was founded by Meri Hōhepa - Suzanne Aubert in 18+2 at Hiruhārama - Jerusalem on the Whanganui River.

Today, inspired by the faith and action of Meri Hōhepa - Suzanne Aubert, we continue our gospel mission by providing compassionate care in the community. We work with volunteers and partners to offer meals, housing, and dignity to those in need, and to support the elderly, refugees, and families.
