Mother M. Corona: Her Life and Legacy

By Barbaralie a Stiefermann Osf

Mother Corona Wirfs was a stellar leader of the School Sisters of St. Francis, an international congregation. She served as president from 1942-1960, to nearly 4,000 members whose lives affected people in the United States, Europe, and Central America primarily through education and health care. She exerted her influence at a time when men dominated the world.History provides today's leaders with role models as they navigate through the complexities of modern life. Such a role model is Mother Corona. In addition to building a college, two high schools, two hospitals, and many other laudatory works, her story can offer direction to contemporary leaders and help clarify their values and ideals. As a woman religious, she was conscious of the integration of heart and brain in her life.This biography details her life in such a way that it evokes gratitude, inspiration, and reflection on the past and discernment on the "needs of the times."The proceeds of this book benefit the retired School Sisters of St. Francis, U.S. Province.
