About Us

The Congregation of the Humility of Mary is a contemporary religious community of women based in Davenport, Iowa. Our Mission: We, the members of the Humility of Mary, call one another to live the Gospel with simplicity and joy following the example of Mary. Like our founders, we strive to be attentive to the call of the Spirit in the signs of our times, especially the needs of the poor and powerless. We commit ourselves as individuals and as a congregation to work for justice within the human family and to care for earth itself.
