Apostolate

THE APOSTOLIC WORK OF THE SBVM SISTERS

The Apostolic Work of the S.B.V.M Sisters is to bring Jesus to the World in the way Mary Mother of God did to the World.  The Sisters do their apostolic work with love and compassion.  They serve those entrusted to them as Mary did.  They show people that they are light and salt to the world.

  1. EDUCATION:  The Congregation has many sister-teachers who teach at various levels of teaching.  Many such sisters with degrees teach in Secondary Schools.  A great majority of sisters with certificates teach in Primary and Nursery Schools.

In helping the underprivileged, sisters feel they are witnesses of the Gospel.  Thus they become instruments of bringing God’s love to the world.  Eventually they grow spiritually for their sanctification and salvation of their souls as well as souls of others.
