J-7 to 10 cards have this CMcA quote on the back of a blank card: When we make our first vows, it is not surprising if we feel anxious, and pronounce them in a timid, faltering voice, being as yet unacquainted with the full extent of His infinite goodness, to whom we engage ourselves forever - but when we renew them, it ought to be with that tone of joy and confidence that the experience

of His unceasing mercies must inspire. I can put this on the inside of the any of the cards.

Frances Warde 1810—1884 No woman founded personally more convents and institutions for the service of the poor, the sick, the illiterate, and all those in need. Perhaps no woman ministered more to suffering humanity in Amer-

She was a woman of God,

and God made her a woman of vision.

Frances Warde’s contribution to United States history between 1843 and 1884 is

unique, coming to the United States from Carlow, Ireland, at a crucial point in the development of American cities and of the American Church and hier-

The Sisters of Mercy responded to calls throughout Ireland, England, New-foundland, and the United States of America and eventually travelled to Australia and New Zealand. Today they work in more than 44 countries.

May He bless and protect you, and make you the instrument of His

glory. -Catherine McAuley in a letter to

Frances Warde June 16, 1838

F-6.

The story of the Sisters of Mercy and their ministry under their

great leader deserves to be remem-bered as one of the greatest epi-

sodes in the history of the Ameri-can Church.

Destined in her zeal for Christ to travel more miles than Paul of Tarsus and to found more convents than Saint Teresa

of Avila, Frances Warde is one of the greatest women in the history of the

Church in the United States.

Mercy has a human heart.

- William Blake

Frances became, at the age of thirty-three, the leader of “the first seven” Sisters of Mercy to go to the New World. “Seven”

was kind of a mystic number in the Mercy Congregation. Seven Sisters, among them,

Frances, had been the first received into the Community in Dublin in 1832.

May God bless and protect you, and make you the instrument of

His glory. - Catherine McAuley in a letter to

Frances Warde June 16, 1838
