Mission Centre

This year, we help several of our missions worldwide by funding wells, farm equipment, healthcare, and school nutrition.

India - New Mineral Water Plant With Reverse Osmosis Technology

The Sisters of St Ann asked us to help with the construction of a water plant for their school of 850 children in Macherla, 120km from the city of Guntur. The implementation of this project has improved the health and sanitary conditions in the school by safeguarding from water-borne and water-related diseases.

Argentina – Ecumenical transition home

Our sisters in Quilmes, Argentina have asked our help for Betania home, a transition centre for women and children fleeing domestic violence. It offers a safe dwelling when their lives are endangered due to violent circumstances. The home is a temporary refuge so they can breathe again and find an autonomous alternative way of life for themselves and their children.

Paraguay –Street Children

Our sisters of the Mita Roga de la Pasión Home in the neighbourhood of San Lorenzo in the city of Caaguazu have created nutrition and schooling programs for children from unsafe, broken, alcoholic, and single-mother homes. This leads single mothers to take on the role of father as well as mother. It is a marginalized, displaced, unsalaried population where children must work on the street and for carpenters completing health hazard jobs. The home asked for annual funding for healthy nutrition and better basic schooling that what their parents can provide.
