Welcome

A warm welcome to this blog on Ursuline religious life. I am Sr Zela and a member of the Vocations Team for our English Province.  I hope the contents will give you some understanding of our way of life and mission, the essence of which is contained in the quotation above. I encourage you to look at our permanent pages on the tabs above and to visit this blog for posts which may be of use to you in your search for God's will for you. My details are on the contact page and I look forward to hearing from you.
Below is my first attempt at creating a short video in which I introduce myself to you and offer you a vocal welcome to this blog.
