One of the Sisters East Africa referred to the fact that there were three of them, like the three members of the Holy Family in their house. This led to some Reactions to sharing about the Holy House of Loreto, Ancona, Italy. That Vatican II 6 house is said to have been the original house of Jesus, Mary England and Joseph. The story is that it was moved from the Holy Land, for protection, during the Wars of the Crusades.

Is this something new? The story of the beginning of the Province of Eastern Africa, carefully preserved in the Archives of the Province of Eastern Africa shows it not to be! Cross Cultural Missioning from The story of the East African mission began on 22nd October 1903.

In spite of their hard work and efforts, the mission did not flourish as desired, and the Sisters remained only two years. Mother Borgia and Mother Catherine left with heavy hearts in January 1905, believing that the time was not yet ripe for the foundation of such a school. 5 Msongari Convent, 1946 Many continued to hope that a mission Mother Raphael had also been recalled from the would be established in Eastern Africa, and Australian mission and taught in Shillong while she this wish was finally realised sixteen years waited on the other members of the mission to arrive. later.

  • Mary Ward's Women
    Archival Display Celebrating Loreto’s 400 Years Presented at Loreto College Ballarat November 2009 Mary Ward’s Women 400 Years of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary In 2009-2011 the Loreto Sisters celebrate 400 years since Mary Ward began her work. They rejoice in and honour the vision, courage and commitment of their founder and her legacy of sisters and schools on every continent, hundreds of thousands of students past and present, countless volunteers, colleagues and friends across the globe; and social justice and education missions that serve the vulnerable, disadvantaged and voiceless around the world. Her followers today work in every continent and try to live by her ideals, promoting the gifts of women in "freedom, justice and sincerity", in a way of life that places emphasis on reflection and action, to serve the gospel "wherever the need is greatest". Mary Ward (1585-1645), was an Englishwoman from Yorkshire who founded the Loreto Sisters. She was a progressive and visionary woman of her time who believed “women in time to come would do much”. She believed that women and men were of equal intellect - a brave assertion at the time - and that they should be educated equally. Mary Ward pioneered a new form of religious life for women (without the constraints of the traditional cloister) – a female version of the Jesuits. Together with her followers she set up schools across England and Europe. By remaining faithful to her insights, she was condemned, those who joined her were disbanded and the Institute suppressed. Despite persecution and scandals about her way of religious life her vision and values live on today – in Australia and around the world.

  • Laudato Si’- a Way of Life
    Laudato Si’- A way of life Mary Ward Sisters South Asia Celebrate The 5th Anniversary of Laudato Si' Week from 16-24 May 2020. “Let’s take care of creation, a gift of our creater God. Let’s celebrate Laudato Si’ Week together.” MERGER MILESTONE: A RATIONALE We are humbled at this opportunity bestowed by the Almighty. Truly, His ways are beyond our comprehension. These last few days have taught us that 'With God, all things are possible.' This is veritably, a major Merger Milestone, that has brought together students, teachers and Sisters of both the congregations of Mary Ward. What better way than to celebrate Laudato Si Week, than to do so in fellowship with each other and the rest of the creation. The celebration of the 5th Anniversary of the Laudato Si Week could not have been more apt this year, despite all the impediments and inexplicable phenomena, natural and otherwise. The Pope's passionate call must be paid heed to, so that we set a purpose to the pangs of protecting this world. These uncertain times, with cyclones, frequent earthquakes, floods and the current pandemic, have only given an impetus to the efforts in this collaborative effort to quell the ecological crises. This was possible only by merging and mirroring the myriad of ideas for a sustainable future. This week was an insightful and introspective journey for all the participants, the JPIC National and Zonal coordinators, both congregations of Mary Ward and Tarumitra. We have learnt that each one of us has a key role to play, like cogs in a wheel, in the future of this world, and to maintain its integrity.

Qualitative and quantitative data, case studies, historical analyses and more theoretical, analytical and philosophical material are welcomed. The journal aims to assist in the human formation and exploration of ideas of those who feel inspired by a charism, its nature and purpose. In this context, charism is seen as a gift to an individual, in our case Marcellin Champagnat, who in turn inspires a movement of people, often internationally, across generations. Such an educational charism encourages people to gather, to share faith, to explore meaning, to display generosity of spirit and to propose a way forward for education, particularly of the less advantaged.

  • An Historical Analysis of the Contribution of Two Women's
    They did what they were asked to do: An historical analysis of the contribution of two women’s religious institutes within the educational and social development of the city of Ballarat, with particular reference to the period 1950-1980. Submitted by Heather O’Connor, T.P.T.C, B. Arts, M.Ed Studies. A thesis submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of PhD. School of Arts and Social Sciences (NSW) Faculty of Arts and Sciences Australian Catholic University November, 2010 Statement of sources This thesis contains no material published elsewhere or extracted in whole or in part from a thesis by which I have qualified for or been awarded another degree or diploma. No other person’s work has been used without due acknowledgment in the main text of the thesis. This thesis has not been submitted for the award of any degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution. All research procedures in the thesis received the approval of the relevant Ethics/Safety Committees. i ABSTRACT This thesis covers the period 1950-1980, chosen for the significance of two major events which affected the apostolic lives of the women religious under study: the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), and the progressive introduction of state aid to Catholic schools, culminating in the policies of the Whitlam government (1972-1975) which entrenched bi- partisan political commitment to funding non-government schools. It also represents the period during which governments of all persuasions became more involved in the operations of non-government agencies, which directly impacted on services provided by the churches and the women religious under study, not least by imposing strict conditions of accountability for funding.
