Sisters of Notre Dame

The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur was founded in France by Julie Billiart in 1804. This was the beginning of a mighty global ministry of women educating young girls. Today, 3,000 Sisters work on five continents. In 2015, the Sisters of Notre Dame celebrated 175 years of service in the United States, where they are recognized as outstanding educators. Today, NDA students are connected with each other around the world and focus on social service and justice. St. Julie died on April 8, 1816 and was canonized on June 22, 1969.
