The Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (I.H.M.) is a Catholic religious institute of sisters, founded by Fr. Louis Florent Gillet, CSsR, and a co-founder of the Oblate Sister of Providence, Mother Theresa Maxis Duchemin, in 1845. Via their first Superior, Mother Duchemin, they were the first predominantly-White order founded by a Black Catholic (though the order hid this fact for 160 years). Founded (and still headquartered) in Monroe, Michigan, the sisters originally began as teachers, but have since added ministries of: pastoral care in hospitals, long-term care facilities and other health care settings; parish ministry and outreach into poor communities and individuals in need; social services; working with those with AIDS; providing spiritual direction and retreats; advocacy efforts; programs and services for older adults in a variety of settings; and work to improve the environment.
