Beatitude House

Beatitude House, sponsored by the Ursuline Sisters of Youngstown, is committed to all disadvantaged women and children.

For Ursuline Sister Margaret Scheetz, the inspiration to open Beatitude House came in the form of a film, God Bless the Child. This film, written by a Youngstown man, is the story of a mother and daughter caught in the cycle of poverty and homelessness. The mother must make the painful decision to give up her daughter, in order for her to lead a better life, giving her daughter a chance at a life she felt she couldn’t give her
