Updated Branding

WE UPDATED OUR LOOK!

Every 20 years or so it is recommended to get a refreshed or new logo. This helps gain renewed attention and new supporters. While we want to have a more modern look, we are tied to our symbol, so we didn’t completely redesign it.

HISTORY Forty years ago, when our community adopted the Notre Dame Sisters symbol, Sr. Margaret Proskovec, ND, was the artist who worked with a small committee of Sisters to design it over three years. Her original symbolism/vision remains.

In 1980, the symbol was presented to the General Chapter of the Notre Dame Congregation and unanimously approved. SYMBOLISM The three elements— a cross for our Faith, the M for Mary for whom our Congregation is named, and wheat that represents the Eucharist and the initial vision of our foundress for a congregation that would endure through many difficulties and persecutions—represent essential elements of our vocation, history, and identity.
