Catherine McAuley
Catherine McAuley is the foundress of the Sisters of Mercy. Learn more about her story.
Recently, using YouTube, a web video entitled Images of Catherine was posted. You are invited to view that show.
No actual photograph of Catherine McAuley exists. Soon after her death there was a rendering of her. Down through time artists and sculptors have used their gifts to portray this remarkable woman. The slide show here shows some of those renderings.
My God, I am thine for all eternity; teach
me to cast my whole self into the arms
of Thy Providence with the most lively
unlimited confidence in Thy
compassionate, tender pity.
"Grant, O most Merciful Redeemer, that
whatever Thou dost ordain or permit may
always be acceptable to me;
take from my heart all painful anxiety,
suffer nothing to afflict me, but sin;
nothing to delight me, but the hope of
coming to the possession of Thee, my
God, in Thy own everlasting Kingdom.
Amen."
