St Ursula – our patron saint

18/10/2022

Ursulines can be found in almost every corner of our globe. Where did the name Ursulines come from?

Our patron saint is St Ursula - it was this saint who inspired St Angela Merici to found the company. St Ursula, a martyr from the 4th century, is a symbol of courage, sacrifice, service, chastity dedicated to God, unity, building community around Christ and teaching about Him.

We are very happy to be Ursuline :) !
