2024 Jubiliarian
“There is a definite need to welcome people into our homes, our institutions, our community, and accept them with all the gifts they have,” says Sister Norma (Marie William) Zanieski, congregational minister of hospitality.
Sister Norma ministered in education for 53 years, teaching at schools in the Pittsburgh, Greensburg, and Altoona-Johnstown Dioceses. She loved to see students grow, both academically and in their faith.
“Don’t be afraid to ask God for what you need or what may bother you. God will give you the answer. It may not be what you want, but it will give you some help and direction.”
A caring administrator, Sister Norma was principal of Holy Name in Ebensburg, Blessed Sacrament in Natrona Heights, and Saints Simon & Jude in Pittsburgh. She also enjoyed being principal at her alma mater, Mount Gallitzin Academy in Baden, and previously served as congregational minister of community life.
“I want to be active and reach out to others as long as possible,” she says. “I know that with the help of God that will happen.”
