Our Lady's Inn is an emergency shelter/maternity home program for

homeless, pregnant women and their children.

Opened 1982 in St. Louis and 2006 in St. Charles,

Our Lady's Inn is a life-affirming alternative to abortion.

More than 5,000 women, plus their children,

have been sheltered and served by Our Lady's Inn.

Your kind acts of prayers, financial support

and volunteerism help the miracle continue and

give hope to women and children in need.

Thank you!
