Sr. Ursula Hyland

1937 – 2019

 

Sr. Ursula was the parish sister here from 1993. While we recognize that her amazing work with the sick, the housebound, the first communions, the baptismal preparation, her support of all the clergy she met in her time, and so many parishioners she came to know leaves an awesome heritage. her faithfulness to the Mass and her prayers throughout her time here will have the deepest impact. 

May her soul and souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace.

We pray for Pope Francis I:

Lord, source of eternal life and truth, give to Your shepherd, the Pope, a spirit of courage and right judgement, a spirit of knowledge and love. By governing with fidelity those entrusted to his care may he, as successor to the apostle Peter and vicar of Christ, build Your church into a sacrament of unity, love, and peace for all the world. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
