As an international Congregation, the Sisters
minister in 24 countries on five continents. They
bring Gospel values to the poor and help empower
them to develop their own resources.
In Tanzania, the Congo, and Mozambique, the
Sisters' work consists primarily of preparing
lay leaders to serve as midwives, to teach in
domestic schools and to prepare adults for the
sacraments. In Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India, Taiwan
and Pakistan, they visit the homes of Buddhist,
Muslim, Hindu, and Christian alike. Their focus
is to be with the people in the midst of severe
suffering and poverty, while respecting their
faith traditions.
In the Philippines, Brazil, Colombia and Ecuador,
the Sisters engage in various apostolic activities,
directing their attention primarily to those who
are victims of injustice.
In Israel and Syria, Sisters are symbols of harmony
between Arab and Jew, Roman Catholic and Assyrian
Orthodox. They conduct a school for 2,000 Arab
children and a nursing home for elderly Arabs.
In Albania and Romania, the Sisters engage in
health care, catechetic and youth work among the
people who suffered under communism for over 50
years and who continue to face the challenges
of conflict and spiritual deprivation.
We invite you to join us, support us financially
and pray with us
that the Church's needs are met.
