The Local Companions in Mission program involves 30 hours of service over a year. It also involves prayer support and occasional meetings with sisters who are in similar ministries. Participants are given room and board, medical insurance, transportation and a small stipend for their service. The Century Club was initiated in 1963 as a financial support to the Ursulines as we were building the Motherhouse in Canfield OH and looking forward to our 100th anniversary in Youngstown. Century II was designed in 1974 at the completion of our first 100 years as a way for benefactors to continue their support of the Ursulines during our second 100 years in the Mahoning Valley.
Membership is open to anyone.
The Ursulines also offer an opportunity for women to gather for prayer and dialogue with The Company of St. Angela. The Company is an association of women who wish to learn more about the Spirit of St Angela Merici, to gather to share on the Scriptures and to offer service wherever they find themselves. Women who want to become vowed members of the Ursulines of Youngstown begin the process with informal, no obligation meetings with a sister in the community. The Ursulines are looking for women who are single, actively involved in the mission of the Roman Catholic Church and are interested in growing spiritually with other like-minded women. Vowed membership involves radical discipleship to Jesus, to live the demands of the gospel in mission and within the community.
