In 2000, the Felician Sisters of the Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Province joined a movement called For Whom the Bells Toll, a national initiative to have religious organizations throughout the country toll their bells whenever there is an execution.

The tolling bells serve as a reminder to all who hear them that all of us are diminished by continuing acts of state-sponsored murder. It is intended that the campaign will continue until there is a moratorium on the death penalty or until the death penalty is abolished in this country.
