Today we celebrate the Feast Day of our patron saint Angela Merici and her vision for education and her unique model of spirituality. She continues to be the inspiring model on which we base ourselves. Her love and sensitivity to human needs won her the title "Madre Angela" from the people of Brescia, Italy. She based her work on a deep understanding of God's love for all, respect for the innate dignity of each person and their potential, https://www.merici.act.edu.au/building-futures/about-merici/angela-merici.
She saw women as significant agents of change in a world longing for love, unity, and harmony. Loving God, You created your servant, St Angela, to be a revolutionary woman. Thank you for the inspiration she gives to all members of our Merici community.
Amen.
