Ministry and Mission

       Our work, ministry, mission include proclaiming the Gospel, sanctifying the faithful through God's grace in worship and enhancing their spiritual life by instructing others and receiving them into the Church through various programs, schools and charitable activities, and implementing Christian ministries.

       When Christ said, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations..." he commissioned us to transform our convent into an agency of Christian outreach. In order to follow the foot-steps of Alphonsamma, it is our duty and obligation not to hide our light under the bushel, but to let it shine before all people. We must let our light so shine - because unless people see in us the light and the love of Christ, they will not believe.

       The mission of our church is to respond to the call of our Lord Jesus Christ, to minister to those who are suffering and are in need, sharing with them God's gifts of food, shelter, economic self-sufficiency and hope. All assistance is provided solely on the basis of need, going to some of the most vulnerable people, including orphans, refugees and displaced persons, the elderly, school children, families and people with disabilities.
