About Sister Anna Caroline Janta

When her sister Maria had joined the Congregation of Notre Dame in 1872, Anna Caroline was only twelve years old. “Caroline pleaded with her father to let her go too. She knew that postponement meant stronger resistance. Her father yielded when he saw that the religious life alone could make her happy.”

After living with a Catholic family in St. Louis for three years and spending many Sunday afternoons with the candidates of St. Joseph’s School, Caroline formally entered the convent on June 15, 1875.

Anna Caroline, professed her perpetual vows as Sister Władysława on July 25, 1892, at the motherhouse in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
