At the Mother House, preparation of food boxes for families in need.
Thanks to the donations of our benefactors, we in turn are able to offer beautiful fruits and vegetables to people in need.
The Fathers help carry the boxes
from the kitchen to the reception.
Two nuns get their hands on
the final preparations.

ready for distribution.
There is more happiness in giving than in receiving! (Acts of the Apostles, 20:35)
The little word from the heart that gives the courage to continue to face life's trials.
Through benefactors God largely provides for all our needs and those of our protégés.

much appreciated on winter days.

for that special Christmas dinner.

by handing out candy and special treats.
Saturday's long queue for food aid from 9am to 12pm. A much appreciated helping hand that relieves the weekly budget of many families in difficulty.

A friendly smile accompanies the meal,
for we don't forget Jesus' words:
What you do to the least of My people,
you do to Me!
Distribution of market bags on Saturdays.
All food is donated by faithful and
generous benefactors.
The gift of food is complemented by words of comfort and encouragement.
Bread is always popular. God bless our benefactors! Without their help, we wouldn't be able to help so many good people.
On days when market bags are distributed to families, the nuns can always count on the dedicated support of volunteers.
