Daytime Associate meetings

to be offered using Zoom

Remember during Covid, when there was no chance to meet in person, so we tried to gather online via Zoom? No one misses those days.

We would all rather meet in person, and we are encouraged that some of our groups are doing that again. But we also know that there are limitations for some of our Associates ever getting to meet with others in person. Some people don’t drive at night, some live too far away to join a group, and there are many other reasons why attending meetings is a struggle.

That’s why we are bringing back a chance to gather online via Zoom. We’re hoping that since it’s a choice – and not the only option – this will appeal to some of our Associates and perhaps some of the Ursuline Sisters as well. We all are energized by sharing our focus on Saint Angela and the Ursuline mission.

The Owensboro Associates meet monthly, and we will use the same program we use at those meetings for our Zoom gatherings. Our first Zoom meeting will be at 10 a.m. (CDT) on Thursday, May 25, 2023. The meeting will last no more than an hour.

Is this the best time to meet? We hope you’ll let us know. Nothing is written in stone, so we can always change the time for future meetings.

We want to encourage all of our Associates to continue gathering in person, but this is a monthly opportunity for those who don’t have that chance.

EVELINA SALAS, 91, a member of the founding group of Casa Ursulina, died in Chillán, Chile, on March 5. Throughout her life, Evelina was an active presence in her neighborhood of Tejar. She organized women’s groups for obtaining government benefits for the needy – funds for repairing roofs, or ramps for wheelchairs. She was influential in contacting immigrants. She reached out to everyone and inspired everyone, especially young people. Sister Mimi Ballard remembers that “Evie learned Tai Chi at Casa Ursulina and – at age 80 – was teaching it to her neighbors. She participated at Casa Ursulina as long as she could.” Evelina’s survivors include her daughter Pilar, three sons, nine grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren. In a published tribute, Virginia Bruna Contreras – a teacher and friend –remembers Evelina as “a tireless fighter for social justice,” whose “convictions were brought to fruition without her raising the tone of her voice.”
