Today we honor Sister Margaret Ann Aull, a native of St. Lawrence, Ky., who is among five Ursuline Sisters celebrating 70 years of religious life in 2023.

Sister Margaret Ann radiates warmth to all those she meets, providing a listening ear and an encouraging word to those in need. She earned a bachelor’s degree in history from Brescia College in 1968, and a master’s degree in education from Western Kentucky University in 1974.
