A Glimpse of Mission History

Father Greg played an essential role in founding the Mission. What many people don’t know is that several other “co-founders” made critical contributions to the formation of the Mission. Among these people are Father John Goggin and the School Sisters of Notre Dame. The School Sisters who contributed to the founding of the Mission were:

  • Sr. Sandra (formerly Philomena) Spencer, 1964-1982
  • Sr. Mary Medard Zweber, 1964-1969
  • Sr. Patricia Nagle, 1969-1970
  • Sr. Arne’ Malecha, 1971-1979
  • Sr. Margaret Joyce, 1972-1980
  • Sr. Rita Studer, 1972-1976
  • Sr. Dorothy Wagner, 1974-1981
  • Sr. Patricia McCusker, 1978-1979
  • Sr. Linda Wanner, 1980-1990
  • Sr. Marie Vianney Bilgrien, 1983-1985
  • Sr. Rose Ann Ficker, 1984-1988
  • Sr. Marie Perpetua Kimball, 1983-1985
