Loyola purchasing its campus, athletic facilities on Good Council Hill
Loyola purchasing its campus, athletic facilities on Good Council Hill By Bernadette Heier | April 8, 2021 at 10:43 PM CDT - Updated April 8 at 10:45 PM
MANKATO, Minn. (KEYC) Amid growth and an outlook for expansion, Loyola Catholic School purchases its campus and athletic facilities on Good Counsel Hill from the School Sisters of Notre Dame.
The purchase comes after the School Sisters of Notre Dame announced their campus was for sale, which has overlooked Mankato for over 100 years.
“When we learned of the Sisters’ divesting other property, one of the first things we looked to do is work with the Sisters and secure our piece up here on this historic Hill,” Loyola Catholic School Principal Adam Bemmels said.

GREENSBURG, Pa. - The nunsâ daily email update was overtaken by news of infections. Ambulances blared into the driveways of their convents. Prayers for the sick went unanswered, prayers for the dead grew monotonous and, their cloistered world suddenly caving in, some of the sistersâ thoughts were halting.

The nuns’ daily email update was overtaken by news of infections. Ambulances blared into the driveways of their convents. Prayers for the sick went unanswered, prayers for the dead grew monotonous and, their cloistered world suddenly caving in, some of the sisters’ thoughts were halting.
“How many of us,” Sister Mary Jeanine Morozowich wondered, “will be left?”
These were women who held the hands of the dying and who raised the unwanted, who pushed chalk to slate to teach science and grammar and, through their own example, faith. And when the worst year was over, the toll on the Felician Sisters was almost too much to bear: 21 of their own, in four U.S. convents, who collectively served 1,413 years, all felled by the virus.
