Calling our Ursuline Community
Ursuline Academy of Wilmington (Delaware, USA) and St Ursula’s College Kingsgrove (Sydney, Australia) are partnering together to create a cookbook with recipes from across our Global network. We were awarded a grant from the International Coalition of Girls’ Schools to support the implementation of a community kitchen at Mother of Peace, a school in Battambang, Cambodia founded by Ursuline Sisters in 2018. This community kitchen will bring together women from the school community to share the space, connect with one another, and benefit from the economic opportunities they are able to generate. Read more about the project here.
In celebration of this project, we will be formatting their recipes as the very first entries to an Ursuline Global Cookbook. All members of our global community are invited to submit recipes as well. We hope to have strong representation from across the world to showcase the beautiful cultural diversity in our vast Ursuline network. Once complete, this cookbook will be sold across our Australian and American communities with all proceeds going back into the kitchen to support the amazing Cambodian women who have joined this team.
While physical books will be sold in the USA and Australia, an electronic file of the cookbook will also be available. This file can be shared with the different Ursuline provinces around the globe for printing and distribution in their respective communities.
We encourage any Ursuline sisters, students, family members, faculty/staff, and alumni to submit a recipe by filling out this form by March 15, 2024. We would also appreciate your help in spreading the word about this endeavour. If you would be able to share the recipe submission form and project concept with those in your communities, we would be most grateful.
We hope you and your Ursuline communities will take part in this opportunity, and we thank you for your consideration!
