Parish Missions
Through dedicated pastoral care, vibrant liturgical celebrations, and community-building activities, we strive to nurture spiritual growth and strengthen the bonds of fellowship among parishioners.
Our Parish Missions in East Africa
Our Province is blessed with three vibrant parish missions in Uganda, Tanzania, and Kenya, each dedicated to nurturing faith and community. We were honored to welcome Fr. General to our communities in Tanzania, where he personally met with every confrere, prayed together, and inspired each community with his insightful orientations. His guidance has brought renewed energy to our religious life, strengthened our sense of fellowship, and invigorated our apostolic work, all in the spirit of the General Chapter 2019.
Although travel restrictions limited visits to Kenya and Uganda, we remain deeply grateful for Fr. General’s unwavering support and leadership during these times.
