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.
Sisters Stories
Sister Sharon Slear, SSND, '61, has been named co-recipient of Notre Dame Preparatory School's 2025 Mother Caroline Friess Alumnae of the Year Award. She shares the honor with her fellow classmate, Peggy Mullan Greenman ’61.
As the Community Nurse for SSND at Marian Village in Homer Glen, IL, I care for Sisters in Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care. I love it!
SSND Waterdown LEAD has been blessed with many volunteers over the years. Some, who want to be part of our faith-based environment, are from the local community. Some are friends of our sisters. Most recently, we've been doubly blessed to have Associate-Volunteers!
Celebrating Jubilee!
Celebrating Jubilee!
Each year, we honor and celebrate our sister Jubilarians. Jubilee is a special time to rejoice with our Sisters as they celebrate their 25, 40, 50, 60, 70, 75, or 80 years of faithful love and service to God.
Learn about this year's Jubilarians
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."
