The Ohio Senate has adopted a resolution honoring the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine on the occasion of their One Hundred Seventy-fifth Anniversary. Established in 1851 by a group of Augustine nuns from France, the congregation has made significant contributions to the Catholic Church and the Diocese of Cleveland through their dedicated service to the sick and poor. Over the past 175 years, they have built a commendable record of outreach and support for underserved populations, becoming a vital source of healthcare, education, and social initiatives in various Ohio communities.
The resolution commends the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine for their foresight, dedication, and selfless contributions, which have earned them the respect and admiration of many. It recognizes the impact of their altruistic efforts and encourages others to follow their example of service to the less fortunate. The Senate extends its best wishes for continued success and prosperity to the Sisters and directs the Clerk of the Senate to provide an authenticated copy of the resolution to the organization.
