Faith Sharing: Sr. Pauline Made Martini (Indonesia) does parish work in Francistown, Botswana, and conducts Bible faith-sharing in the nearby village of Shashemooke.

South Africa: In the Diocese of Tzaneen, our Sisters manage the ARV clinic. Sr. Marita Kurian, the site manager, balances the hectic schedule with time for fun and relaxation.

World AIDS Day: Theme: “Stop AIDS, Keep the Promise” is the theme for this national event. Attended by people from throughout Botswana, it provides opportunities for people to be conscientisised. Our Sisters support efforts to educate people about HIV/AIDS, preventive measures, and value formation.

The Sisters in Zambia are engaged in various apostolates focused on HIV/AIDS and preventive measures. The Sisters coordinate the "Behavioral Change Programme" (workshops); are in charge of Lubashi Home (an orphanage); participate in Bible ministry and cathectics.
