The bond of sincere love unifies all hearts.    Mother Birgitta Korff, OSB

Winnebago

Our sisters in Winnebago, Nebraska, serve the Native American communities through education, parish ministry and pastoral care.

The sisters minister among the Native Americans in Thurston County at St. Augustine's Indian Mission. Since 1957, their commitment to elementary education at the mission has influenced primarily the Omaha and Winnebago Nations.

St. Augustine Mission holds a respected place in Northeast Nebraska for offering quality elementary education. The school strengthens the Catholic faith community through interaction with the parents, sacramental celebration and instruction in Catholic living.

In recent years the Sisters devote more time to home visiting and prison ministry. Through these efforts the sisters have been able to be more supportive to a variety of needs of the Native American peoples. For more information, contact Sr. Bernardine Beckman at 402-878-2571.
