Today we honor St. Angela Merici, founder of the Ursuline Order of nuns. She dedicated her life to the education of young girls and the promotion of Christian values. Her devotion to God and her service to others serve as an inspiration for us all. Let us remember her legacy and strive to live our lives with the same dedication and compassion. #StAngelaMerici #UrsulineOrder #education
