About the Event
175 years ago, on September 16, 1847, five Loretto sisters from Ireland, including Rev. Mother Teresa Dease (Foundress), landed at Cooper’s Wharf in Toronto. Today, on the anniversary of their arrival, we celebrate their bold pioneering spirit and contribution to the the history of the IBVM.Â
