HISTORY OF ST. URSULA


A young French woman, later to be known as Mother Anne de Xainctonge became deeply aware of the lack of the educational opportunity for the girls of her time and was inspired to open schools. On 29” November 1596, Mother Anne left her native town, Dijon, France, in spite of all resistance from her family to start the Society of St, Ursula. Through struggles and suffering, she founded the Society of St. Ursula on 16th June 1606. Many young women joined and committed themselves to this noble profession of educating girls and women of their time.

In 1953 a few Swiss sisters came to India to continue the good work Mother Anne had begun.
