"At times when I might have
been met with difficulties,
Providence suddenly placed
in my path people who could
help me.”

Mother Margaret George 1787-1868

On Nov. 12, 2018, the Cincinnati SC Community will commemorate the 150th anniversary of the death of Margaret Cecilia George, the founding mother of the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati. It was Margaret’s courage, conviction and leadership that led a small group of Sisters to remain true to the vision of Elizabeth Seton and establish the Cincinnati community in 1852. Margaret followed her heart and the way of pure faith. The following section is devoted to Mother Margaret George, and provides articles, reflections and creative pieces to help others learn more about Margaret George’s spirit and strength.
