School Masses on Fridays

I went to Catholic school at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic School in Hopewell, PA. Growing up, I loved going to Mass on Fridays. Sr. Margaret Frazer (Sr. Margie), who has now passed on to the heavenly gates, would always sit with us. I remember feeling so special when she would come and sit with our grade — and even better, right next to me!

About 15 years later, I ran into Sr. Margie at a retreat at the Sisters’ house in Baden, PA. It was a major blast from the past, and I got to sit down and eat lunch with her, catching her up on my life, being done with college and having a career of my own. We talked about Fatima, and how I still am there as a basketball coach. I am now working in the Fatima parish grouping, Mary, Queen of Saints Parish, as the youth minister and communications director. I think about her often, and hope she would be proud.

Serving where needed since 1874

Founded in Poland in 1855, the Felician Sisters are a congregation of women religious inspired by the spiritual ideals of their foundress, Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska, and Saints Francis of Assisi, Clare of Assisi and Felix of Cantalice. Arriving in North America in 1874 following Blessed Mary Angela’s directive “to serve where needed,” they helped to weave the social service system. Today, the Felician Sisters founded, sponsor or support through the presence of our sisters, more than 40 ministries – all continuing to evolve to meet the needs of the people they serve.
