Celebrating Sr. Jeannie Humphries’ 25th Jubilee

On Saturday, June 14, 2025, the Ursuline Sisters of the Eastern Province honored Sr. Jeannie
Humphries, OSU, on her 25th Jubilee. The day began with a celebratory service, followed by a
festive reception with friends, family, and other Sisters who gathered to mark this extraordinary milestone in Jeannie’s journey of faith and service.

Jeannie began her Ursuline ministry in 1999, and has brought her boundless energy, compassion, and commitment to the field of education. She holds a BA in Psychology/Education and an MS in Reading and Special Education from the College of New Rochelle, as well as a Ph.D. in Language and Literacy from Fordham University. She has taught in classrooms across New York, including St. Philip Neri in the Bronx, Flanders Elementary in Malone, St. Ignatius in Hunts Point, Concordia College, and Fordham University. Sr. Jeannie is past principal of the Academy of Mount St. Ursula.

Today, Sr. Jeannie continues to embody the spirit of Saint Angela Merici in her role as Principal
of the John Cardinal O’Connor School in Irvington, NY, leading a Catholic K–8 community
serving children with learning differences. Reflecting her ongoing commitment to the future
of religious life, she has been an active member of Giving Voice and is currently involved with the Leadership Collaborative.

Sr. Jeannie is a passionate soul who inspires all around her. We are proud to count her
among our own and give thanks for her 25 years of joyful service.
