Memorial Card Program

The Sisters of Mercy offer the McAuley community two beautiful memorial cards to honor loved ones. They can be used as memorial cards, healing cards or for special intentions. All those being honored are remembered in a special monthly mass offered in Mercy Chapel and in the daily prayers of the Sisters of Mercy.

Two sizes are available, either an 8x10 with a suggested donation of $20 or a 4x6 with a suggested donation of $10. Donations help support McAuley’s endowment for student financial aid.

To request a Mass Card, please contact JoAnn Altenbach in McAuley’s Development Office at jaltenbach@mothermcauley.org, by calling 773-881-6559 or pick them up in the Main Office.

The beautiful artwork depicted on the Mother McAuley Memorial Card is a mosaic of “The Four Catherines”: (from left to right): Kateri Tekakwitha, Catherine McAuley, Mary & Jesus, Catherine of Siena and Catherine of Alexandria. The piece was designed by Sister Mary Hannon, RSM, Sister Mary Lou Hogan, RSM, Sister Judith Niemet, RSM, Sister Virginia Peacock, RSM, Barbara Rossi, and Sister Solina Hicks, RSM. It is on display at Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School in the east corridor.
