Our Sisters

School Sisters of Notre Dame continue to live the vision of Foundress Blessed Theresa Gerhardinger in a variety of ways. Below our Sisters share stories of their work and ministry.

We go forth daily in the spirit of Mother Theresa, remembering her words: "Poor and abandoned, we began the work of God in supernatural faith and confidence... let us continue to serve the Triune God all our Lives with Joy."

Sisters in the News

On April 6th, SSND Waterdown hosted a joyous celebration of an educator, elder, religious leader, Sister, and friend. Sister Colette Ryan celebrated her 100th birthday surrounded by friends, family and those who love her.
The Sisters in Waterdown celebrated St. Patrick’s day with Irish coffee and Irish Soda Bread during an afternoon party. We loved having Sister Mary Roy lead us in song, and especially loved having her share this day of relaxed fun and fellowship with us! 
Early in the morning on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene visited the tomb. She found something unusual. The stone had been moved away.
