The March of People and the Christian Pilgrmage

The Malagasy are used to walking long distances in their country. Their determination and endurance are testimony to human resilience in the face of geographical and social challenges.

 

 

 

A Reciprocal Thank You

Dear Sisters,

As I think of your impending departure, my heart fills with emotions. These years at your side have been a real gift in my life. Working with you every day has given me moments of peace, sharing and faith — but above all, it has brought me closer to my Master Jesus.

On the Road

Since the beginning of 2025, we’ve been on the road in a Church on the move, bearing witness to the hope that dwells within us. Courageously, we continue our journey, carrying only our faith in Jesus Christ, who said to us: I am with you always, until the end of the world.

A choise... a decision

At any given moment, life presents us with choices... a beautiful walk in nature, a celebration, a cruise. Everything seems wonderful and exciting. But we may also feel the call for an inner journey… an invi­tation to get moving.

Living in a school with animals is not common practice in Hong Kong. However, it’s what we’ve been doing since 2013, and more and more people are getting to know the animals at Good Hope School.

A Banquet!

For World Mission Sunday, October 20, Pope Francis issued an invitation that is not to be missed: Go and invite everyone to the wedding. God espouses humanity. What a beautiful theme!

The presence of several M.I.C. Sisters from other countries who joined our mission in Latin America has left its mark on our history, as a spiritual legacy. This presence remains alive in our hearts.
