Who We Are

Our Lady’s Inn Maternity Homes (OLI) serve as a safe haven for pregnant women and their children in need of housing and services. We serve in the St. Louis and St. Charles Metropolitan communities. In helping these mothers transition from crisis toward independence and stability, Our Lady’s Inn opens the door to hope for a new life.
