Servant-Leadership, empowered by the Holy Spirit.
HMCAF-USCAN unites Harris Memorial College alumnae across the United States and Canada through fellowship, service, and continued support for our Alma Mater and its student deaconesses.
Who We Are
A Federation of Servant-Leaders
Associations of graduates and former students of Harris Memorial College, residing in the United States and Canada — women who fulfill God’s call to serve.
The federation brings everyone together, shares our stories, strengthens each other, fellowships with one another, and continues to support our sister deaconesses and our college through our gifts and our prayers.

From British Columbia to Texas, twelve regional associations carry the federation's mission forward in their own communities.
