We are the African region of an international community of sisters with a presence in Europe, North America and South America.

In 1930, our first sisters from America and Europe arrived in Calabar, Cross River State, Nigeria. Today, we minister in three African countries: Chad, Ghana and Nigeria. We work in organic agriculture, education, leadership training, health services, pastoral work and religious formation.

In whatever we do, we honor the richness of our cultures while fulfilling our mission of "helping others believe that God lives and acts in them and in our world."
