Sisters From Our Past 
As Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia, we treasure the heritage that has been passed on to us since our foundation in 1860. Each sister has contributed to the holiness and apostolic works of the Congregation throughout its history. Here we highlight a few of these sisters. In the early years of our history, Mother Frances Walsh and Mother Ann Hanlon were leaders who set out in service of the Order and the Church as they worked to establish the Congregation before, during, and after the Civil War. Sisters who pioneered our educational foundations include Mother Scholastica Breen and Mother Joan of Arc Mayo. In the years after the Second Vatican Council, our community was steadfast in always living in the heart of the Church, led by the words and actions of Mother Marie William MacGregor.
