The principal house of the Mother Community of the Congregation of  Missionary Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Mercy is in the Archdiocese of Saigon, Vietnam. In 1975, some sisters escaped the threat of the Vietnamese  Civil War by moving to Australia. Later, they moved to Springfield, Missouri and from there several sisters came to serve in Lincoln. By 1998, the Community in America became a Region of the Motherhouse in Vietnam.

Father Bernard Maria Bui Khai Hoan, CMC, our community's founder, wrote our Constitutions and Statutes

        The Sisters living in Lincoln received permission from their founder and the Sister Superior General in Vietnam to maintain their constitutions independently of the Region. The Diocesan Congregation of the  Missionary Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Mercy was established by Bishop Bruskewitz on May 4, 1999.
