(50 for 50 series) “Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton is a woman of the church for all ages because of her accomplishments during a remarkable life. I personally see her both as a Saint and the spiritual inspiration to so many women of religious orders, as well as a major contributor to the building of America. Because of her deep love of God, Church, and country she is the giver of all gifts by the thousands of schools, colleges, hospitals, orphanages, nursing homes as well as nursing schools that follow in her great footsteps. We, as women of the church, have so much to be proud of for the past two centuries. St. Elizabeth Ann Seton is the new, now, forever. And her LEGACY CONTINUES.”
— Ellen Kelly, NLC member
