About Sister Mary:

Born in Phoenixville, PA, Sister Mary entered the Congregation of the Sisters Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in 1949 from St. Mary Parish, Phoenixville, PA and professed her vows in 1950. She taught in the elementary and secondary schools in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, the Diocese of Allentown, and in Peru and Chile. In 1968, Sister started her service to the Church as a Director of Religious Education beginning with Good Shepherd, Camp Hill; St. James, Falls Church; St. Agnes, Sellersville and Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, Hilltown. She retired to Camilla Hall in 2012.  Sister Mary of the Sacred Heart Brignola, IHM, died in Camilla Hall on Thursday, April 4, 2017, in the 68th year of her religious life. She was 86 years old. We dedicate this library in her memory for her service to our Parish and for her work with this library.
