‘Congregational transformation and evaluation’ were mandates of our last General Chapter of 2022.

To help implement this we are beginning a reflection process to begin on 25th March this year, culminating on 25th March 2025, the 125th anniversary of our foundation.

Each province has written a short account of their beginnings and their development for congregational reflection and sharing.

This process will link the past to the present and hopefully assist us to rediscover and strengthen our MSC identity for the future.

Our Australian sisters launched the reflection year with the presentation of the first booklet of articles from Germany, Namibia and Peru. The second will be the articles from Korea, USA, PNG and India. Lastly, the third will be from Australia, Guatemala/El Salvador and the Philippines.
