About Us
Rev. Msgr. Vito Mistretta , our council's 1st Chaplain, suggested we adopt the name "Infant Mary" in honor of our Blessed Mother. Rev. Mistretta wished to establish a Catholic school at his parish; he wrote the Order; and in 1959 Mother General Constantina Baldinucci sent six Sisters of Charity of the Infant Mary to Holy Family Parish where they would teach until their departure in June 1971. The Infant Mary Council works closely with Holy Family Parish in Citrus Heights.
