Our third stop traveling through South America was an Ursuline Global Conference on "Fraternity and Life on the Planet." We were the very honored international guests at this fantastic meeting of Ursuline educators from all over Brazil. The conference was held at the very beautiful Ursuline school in Ribeirao Preto, Brazil, in the state of Sao Paulo. The conference participants were full of enthusiasm for Ursuline education, Saint Angela and global friendships. We also had the great joy of reuiting with many of our friends from our sister school in Bahia, Nossa Senhora da Piedade, who were also in attendance at the conference. The best news from the conference is that we at Ursuline Dallas have been asked to collaborate on an Ursuline Global Youth Conference to be held in Septemebr 2012 in Brazil. We hope that Ursuline students from all over the world will attend! More on this event will be coming soon! In the meantime, we treasure our wonderful experience in Ribeirao Preto and we look forward to gathering together with our students in 2012!!
