Sister Margaret Edmund, SSJ, came to Becahi in 1982. Sister’s previous experience in Elementary, Secondary, Parish Religious Education and Retreat Ministry in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, the Diocese of Allentown and Harrisburg prepared her well for the BCHS Theology classroom which continues to remain ‘the home of her heart’. 

Sister considers herself a lifelong learner. Her academic credentials include a BA in Spanish, MA in Religious Studies and a Diocesan Master Catechist Certificate. The world of advancing technology, the presence of international students and first-time Theology students are exciting and enriching additions to the traditional classroom.  

She can’t imagine herself apart from the energy, creativity and generous spirit of her students. In recent years, she has found special joy in teaching the children and siblings of the children entrusted to her care. 

Each day is a gift, a gathering of persons who seek and desire to proclaim the Truth. For each and every colleague, coach, parent, student and friend who has crossed her path, she is grateful. And of course, she is eternally grateful to our Awesome God without Whom none of the above would have been possible. Amen.
