Fifty-two weeks a year, women religious stand with the poor and immigrants, teach children, fight injustice, heal the sick, share spirituality, empower women, defend the planet, promote peace and create community. But for one week, March 8-14, the spotlight shines on them. We invite you to help celebrate National Catholic Sisters Week.

Beginning on March 8, we will highlight how IHM Sisters connect in today’s world and share initiatives that make a difference. We invite you to engage with them in your own way #CatholicSistersWeek #CelebratingTraditions #ChangingtheWorld

Saturday, March 9
IHMs have been educators in many fields over the years. Even in retirement years, they continue to educate others. Sister Marie Cyril Delisi is just one example. She is dedicated to raising childhood literacy in Detroit at Epiphany Education Center. As a volunteer, she helps provide academic intervention strategies to elementary and middle school students who are at risk, have disabilities and I.E.P.s, are victims of trauma, are below grade level readers, and/or have been retained or in jeopardy of being retained. She participates in one-to-one tutoring, book clubs, summer camp and group tutoring.
