Congregation of Divine Providence information


The Sisters of Divine Providence launched construction of this five-story brick Renaissance building on East Sixth Street in Newport, Kentucky, in 1890, opening in 1903, where the congregation taught a Christian-based curriculum. As of 2022, the building serves as a residential condominium complex.

The Congregation of Divine Providence (or Sisters of Divine Providence) is the name of several Roman Catholic religious institutes of women which have developed from the work of Jean-Martin Moye (1730-1793), a French Catholic priest. They are dedicated to the instruction and care of the neediest of the world. Started in 1762, it took its final form in 1852.

Moye saw the lack of educational opportunities for females in the rural sectors of his large parish in the Duchy of Lorraine, at that time an independent nation, speaking a form of the German language. The general motherhouse of the largest congregation is in Saint-Jean-de-Bassel, Moselle, France. The Sisters of this congregation serve on four continents. They all use the postnominal initials of C.D.P..[1]
