Our Mission

The Sisters of Notre Dame are an international congregation of women religious who serve the Church in seventeen countries on six continents.

We have ministered in California for over eighty years, bringing hope to the world through catechesis, pastoral ministry, education, health care, social ministries, and missionary activity.

Pray With Us

Reflection is a critical part of our community life, and we hope to share some of it with you. Follow this space for podcasts of Sr. Mary Kathleen Burns’ talks, and keep up with Sr. Marie Paul Grech on our group blog. Click below to join us!
