The Ursuline Associate Team recently hosted a Come and See Tea in Oxford CT. About 30 men and women attended from West Haven, Meriden, Oxford and Danbury.

The purpose of the gathering was to acquaint the group with St. Angela Merici as a woman for all times.

The group listened attentively as sisters and associates spoke of their personal convictions and love of Angela.

Slides, prayer and a social rounded out the afternoon.
