The
Maryknoll Sisters, (formerly the
Maryknoll Sisters of St. Dominic/
Teresians) are an institute of
Catholic religious sisters founded in the
village of Ossining,
Westchester County, New York, in 1912, six months after the 1911 creation of the
Maryknoll community of missionary brothers and fathers. Until 1954, when they became a
pontifical institute, the religious institute was known as the
Foreign Mission Sisters of St. Dominic. The sisters use the suffix "
M.M." after their names.
