“Desiring to dedicate myself forever to the service of God’s people, I
ask to profess perpetual vows in this Institute of the Sisters of Mercy of
the Americas.

With these words spoken on June 2 at College of Saint Mary’s Our
Lady of Mercy Chapel, Sister Marie Angele began the formal rite

master of fine arts in theatre at the University of Iowa
