Eleven Sisters traveled to Miami from Italy on October 21, 1963: Sisters Lucia, Consolata, Enrichetta, Giuseppina, Carla, Paola, Ada, Enrica, Maria, Giovanna and Giulana. Today there are four highly trained, qualified and experienced Sisters. Three have been here since 1963 ( Sister Lucia, Sister Carla, Sister Paola ) and Sister Lidia, who came from Italy in 1996.
