FreeSisters in Emmitsburg and in congregations throughout the country were called to serve during the Civil War.

Sisters from various congregations will be on-site to discuss what sisters in the 1860s experienced during the Civil War. June 29 features Sister Betty Ann McNeil, DC. This event is free.
