Sisters of Holy Cross
The Sisters of Holy Cross, headquartered in Montreal, Canada is a Catholic congregation of religious sisters which traces its origins to the foundation of the Congregation of Holy Cross in 1837 in Le Mans, France by the Blessed Father Basil Anthony-Marie Moreau, CSC. Two other congregations of sisters also have the same origins: the Marianites of Holy Cross (New Orleans, Louisiana) and the Sisters of the Holy Cross (Notre Dame, Indiana).
For a history of the four congregations of Holy Cross, see the Congregation of Holy Cross.
