Despite its age (196 years), it remains a young, dynamic province, with over 50% of the sisters under the age of 50. Hence, the importance we place on formation in all areas. Another characteristic of the province is its internationality and availability for mission. The mixture that exists in all our communities reflects the spirit of welcome and communion thus opening us to the universal.
A good look at the geography of the province, makes one well aware of our presence in very sensitive areas, dominated by the rise of religious fanaticism and Islamic sects. Because of this, the mission in Mali was temporarily closed and the sisters in ZINDER left, leaving the lay manager to supervise our works (schools, clinics). Despite this climate of insecurity and precariousness, our valiant missionaries keep the flame of hope and faith burning with the aide of our benefactors who support us in our mission.
We continue to work in the fields of the Lord through
- the educational work of youth,
- health care,
- women’s promotion
- and we pay special attention to the most vulnerable
- drop of milk for children,
- visits to prisoners
- reorientation classes for children with a disability,
- sewing center for girl
In this year of mercy we are more than ever engaged in our mission and inspired by the message of Pope Francis who invites us to live in joy and wake up the world.
