Franciscan Sisters

The Franciscan Sisters of the Poor have been blessed with the mission to heal the wounds of Christ through love and service, especially to the poor and needy.

Throughout the #COVID19 pandemic, Catholic Sisters everywhere have braved health risks and logistical challenges to bring care and hope to those most in need 💞

That’s all from @franciscansfp in the Philippines! Can you guess where we’re headed next week? #YouAreMySister

‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ This sentiment has inspired the Sisters to redouble their efforts & given them the courage to continue their work, despite the fear of becoming infected with #COVID19.

When the Sisters launched their pandemic programme for food distribution, beneficiaries initially received supplies in plastic bags. However, many started bringing their own reusable containers, demonstrating their commitment to sustainability and #CareForCreation 🌏

The Sisters’ aim was to reopen their centre for street children, disabled people and the elderly as quickly as possible. During lockdown, they invited local staff and their families to live with them, and focused together on preparing for new challenges.

17 de novembro de 2018: festa de Santa Isabel.
Mesmo através de nós, Deus tem algo precioso para expressar na comunidade da vida.
O testemunho de Isabel nos incita a sermos bons e fazer o bem, acolhendo todas as expressões da Vida.
