Tessa Barnett


Tessa is the Program Manager of Fundraising for the Sisters of Bon Secours, USA. Having worked for the Sisters for over ten years, Tessa is happy spending her time sharing the Bon Secours Mission with as many people as possible. The Sisters and their many ministries provide healing, compassion, and liberation to all they serve and come in contact with. “Bon Secours” is French for “Good Help” and being “Good Help to Those in Need” is a guiding principle for Tessa in the workplace and in her personal life.

“The Sisters of Bon Secours tirelessly work toward a healthier earth. Our campus sits on 313 acres and great care is taken to provide a spiritual and sacred place for our visitors, guests, and all of God’s creatures. Our grounds are integral to providing spiritual nourishment to people. With the help of Nature Sacred, our 1-acre Labyrinth was install in 1999 and it has become a core part of our identity. People come from all over just to experience the Labyrinth!”
