Pray With Us
Join Dan Schutte in a virtual novena for Pentecost on the Feast of the Ascension. Let us join those first disciples in these nine days of prayer, a way for us to be together even while we are separated by space.

In Memoriam
Inspired by her childhood Sunday School teacher, Sister Mary Ellen, Georganne “felt the desire to be like her someday.” After over 50 years as a teacher, she and her dear friend Sister Catherine Goodell were awarded The Lux in Tenebris Award from St. Thomas Aquinas HS.
Marie Dolores was 18 when she entered the School Sisters of Notre Dame in Baltimore; she and four of her five sisters were SSNDs. Sister Marie Dolores ministered as a teacher for more than three decades in Catholic schools.
On a trip to Ethiopia in 1965, Sister Martin met Emperor Haile Selassie, and she wrote, “I was experiencing the continent [Africa] for the first time, and it really touched me… Someday SSND would be on that continent, and I wanted to be there, too.”
"Prayer is true heavenly food and nourishment for the soul, which will starve without it. It is a remedy for the sick who desire to recover again, joy for the afflicted, strength for the weak, medicine for sinners, delight for the just, mutual support for the entire church.”
-BLESSED THERESA GERHARDINGER
