History
The sisters arrived in Iowa City, Iowa in 1875 from Germany. At the request of Rev. Bernard Baak in Peoria, Illinois, six sisters were sent there to care for the sick in 1876. The sisters became an independent religious community in 1877.[5]
In April 2012, the Sisters dropped a bid to acquire a health care organization in Rockford after the Federal Trade Commission challenged the merger as anti-competitive.[6][7] Sister Judith Ann is also the subject of the 2013 documentary Divine Prescription: Stories of Faith, Community and Healing.[8]
