May the promise of the Resurrection renew our hearts and call us to live with faith, courage, and compassion in the spirit of Serviam.
Wishing the Ursuline community a blessed and joyful Easter.
St. Angela Merici created a new path for women—neither marriage nor the cloister but life in the world, rooted in prayer, service, & leadership. In 1535, she founded the Company of St. Ursula. Ursuline schools now span the globe, educating, inspiring, and empowering young women.
St. Angela Merici named her Company of women for St. Ursula, a Medieval saint revered as a courageous leader who displayed conviction & deep faith. Her choice signaled an active, world‑engaged mission. Ring Day at Ursuline is in October to honor St. Ursula’s Oct. 21 Feast Day.
On this Palm Sunday, we remember Christ’s entry into Jerusalem and begin our journey through His Passion.
May this Holy Week draw us closer to His sacrifice, His mercy, and His love.
