Our Ursuline family is quite large; so we in the Central Province
of Roman Union Ursulines have links throughout the world. Let
us tell you about some of the connections that are important
to us.
 Other
United States Provinces of Ursulines:
The Ursulines of the Roman Union have four United States provinces.
In addition, then, to the five states served by our own Central
Province, there are Ursuline communities in Maine, Massachusetts,
New York, Delaware, California, Montana, Idaho, and Alaska.
With this network of Provinces we are
able to serve in many areas of our country.

Roman Union Ursulines in 36 Countries:
Our international family is large and quite diverse in lifestyle
and ministry. We are in Asia, Africa, Europe, North and South
America, and Australia. So many cultural gifts enrich our lives
and enable us to serve the worldwide Church.
North American and Worldwide Ursuline
Family:
In addition to the Roman Ursulines, there are many other groups
of Ursuline Sisters who are bonded
with us in our large family founded by St. Angela Merici. These
groups can be found throughout the United States, Canada, Central
America, South America, Europe, and Asia.
Other Ursuline Sisters Groups:
 Companions
in Mission and Associates:
We are fortunate in having many lay women and men connected
with our life and ministry. Our
Companions in Mission are lay volunteers who share ministry
with us in a variety of sites that serve the poor and marginalized.
Associates are women and men drawn by the spirituality of St.
Angela and who come together regularly for prayer, reflection,
and faith-sharing.
Alumnae/i, Friends, Benefactors:
Because we sponsor or serve in many schools, our lives are enriched
by many alumnae/i. It is important to us to keep in touch with
all those who have shared in Ursuline education in any way.
An ever-expanding circle of friends and benefactors from our
varied ministries also enhances our rich network of connections.
Former Ursulines:
Through the years, there are a number of women whose path in
life took them in a direction other than the Ursuline path on
which they started. We are glad they are still a part of our
lives and are grateful for their ongoing friendship and support.
 Other
Religious Communities:
As Ursuline Sisters we are connected to all the women religious
of the United States. We are active members of the Leadership
Conference of Women Religious. To
