Meet Our Sisters Tour

Catholic Sisters continue to serve and have an impact even after almost two centuries of their presence in Illinois. That’s the message of the Illinois-based Meet Our Sisters Tour kicking off during National Vocation Awareness Week, Nov. 6-12, 2022.

The tour begins HERE where you will  find links to participating congregations’ websites and details about in-person and virtual events, discernment resources, and inspirational stories and videos about the impact of Catholic Sisters on education, healthcare, and the social and spiritual lives of Individuals and communities in Illinois and around the world.

Tutoring immigrants, teaching new readers, leading prayer, accompanying rape victims, supporting young people, advocating for abused children, walking with ex-felons, administering hospitals, working for systems change, praying for those in crisis, cooking for the homeless, holding the powerful to account: These are the daily tasks of Catholic Sisters in more than 50 congregations with a presence in Illinois.

We invite everyone whose life has been enriched by a Catholic Sister, as well as those curious about religious life who want to help build a culture of vocations, to take the tour and learn more about women religious in Illinois today,” said Laurie Lindauer, a communications professional for the School Sisters of Notre Dame.
