Elizabeth Ministry International

is a Catholic movement that encourages women and families to live a vocation of love in everyday life. Inspired by the Visitation, we accompany one another—just as Mary and Elizabeth did— offering friendship, prayer, and support through the joys and sorrows of the childbearing years and all life’s seasons.

We exist to

Honor the gift of life
Cherish children
Strengthen families
Uplift the sanctity of marriage
Build faith-filled communities of hope and healing

❃ Elizabeth Ministry was established in 1991 and has over 800 registered chapters worldwide ❃

With Chapters Around the World

we walk alongside those experiencing pregnancy, loss, infertility, birth, miscarriage, stillbirth, infant death, and parenting transitions—offering compassionate care rooted in faith. Whether through one-on-one mentorship, healing retreats, or resource support, we reflect Mary and Elizabeth’s example of love in action as we walk alongside others with hope, prayer, and love.

No one should walk alone. As Mary went in haste to Elizabeth, so we go—bringing joy, presence, and hope.
