One of the sisters appeared Monday evening on The Journey Home , where she told the story of her parents conversion to the Catholic faith.

Mother Assumpta and the sisters will be guests of Fr. Mitch Pacwa tonight, at 8pm, on EWTN!(check your cable provider for appropriate channel)

Thanks! I'll have to show my daughters...

Once fully developed, this system of smaller, multi-age grouping schools will provide a challenging elementary-school curriculum infused with a strong Catholic identity.

Spiritus Sanctus Academies are committed to achieving the highest excellence in human and intellectual formation as well as to supplying an unequivocal witness to Catholic truth and practice.

So plans call for a chapel to stand at the center of each school house unit. Daily Mass, Eucharistic Adoration on First Fridays, and emphasis on the Family Rosary make these schools ideal places for the Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist to fulfill their vision of the new evangelization.

Now that's a school I can support!

(Their daily schedule is impressive.)

My niece is joining in August. She is so excited and we are all thrilled!

Thank you for posting.

I added them to my charitable giving at the beginning of the year, along with the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia, from Nashville. These teaching orders, in my estimation, are the single greatest need this country has: a rejuvenation of the Catholic school system.

That's awesome! You must keep us advised as she makes her way through the novitiate. Many prayers for her and the family.

No doubt about it.

I have been supporting the Order for over two years. The thing that has struck me is the sheer joy in the faces of these women in every photo I have seen. Mother Assumpta said tonight that once they have 100, they are going to branch out to another part of the country. May God's will be done!
