Sister Kathleen McGrady

Sister Kathleen McGrady, SC, entered the Sisters of Charity of Seton Hill on September 8, 1958, from St. John the Baptist Parish (Pittsburgh, PA). She has served in the area of education, teaching at St. Joseph School (Mount Pleasant, PA) for three years, and the DePaul Institute for Hearing and Speech (Pittsburgh, PA) for 19 years. She also served as the education coordinator at Elizabeth Seton Child Care (Pittsburgh, PA) for seven years. Most recently, she served as the director of Providence Child Care Center, a ministry of Providence Connection, Inc. (Pittsburgh, PA), serving from 1999 through January 2008.
“My parents planted the seeds of my vocation early on and nourished it by living a day-to-day life that acknowledged the importance of Christian living. The education I received from the Sisters of Charity at St. John the Baptist School built on that foundation,” Sister Kathy explains. “Our Rule states that we ‘proclaim the Gospel message of salvation.’ I consider that challenge an extension of Christ’s advice: ‘Teach the little children to come unto me . . .’ Class preparation, child care, relationships with parents, teacher supervision, personal continuing education—all frame and enhance the Gospel message of Salvation.”
