Nestled within our Incarnate Word campus is the majestic clock tour that not only marks the passage of time but also resonates with the institution's profound Catholic heritage. As we walk through our campus, a familiar tune chimes each day, “The Hymn to the Incarnate Word.” This hymn tune was adapted from Hosanna #34.
Most of us are used to individuals and families entering the Church and receiving their Sacraments in the parish. It was my junior year in college when I learned this occurs at Catholic colleges as well when my best friend expressed a desire to be Baptized into the Church. For a whole year, as her sponsor, we met with other students with the same desire, and I witnessed her reception into the Church at the Easter Vigil that year.
It is with deep sadness that the University of the Incarnate Word (UIW) shares the news of the passing of former UIW President Sr. Margaret Patrice Slattery, CCVI. Sr. Margaret Patrice passed away on Saturday, July 27, 2024. She was a member of the founding congregation of the University, the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word and she served as president of UIW from 1972 to 1985.
