St. Angela Hall is named after Angela Merici, who founded the Order of the Ursulines Nuns and changed what religious life was for women. She sought to educate poor young women and thereby re-evangelize families by future wives and mothers. It was her sisters, the Ursuline Nuns, who would first come to New Orleans and create the Catholic Schools in 1723. The Ursuline Sisters also served St. Angela Academy - which was the Catholic High School in Aiken. For an extended history of St. Angela, click HERE. |
