Medical Mission Sisters - United Kingdom
About 20 sisters live and work in the United Kingdom.
All have worked overseas and have now either returned to the UK or are working at our Generalate (international headquarters) in London.
The sisters are involved in pastoral work, hospital chaplaincy, drop-in centres, and are members of a variety of organisations concerned with the prevention of human trafficking, justice and peace, environmental issues, climate change, and inter-faith dialogue.
Publicity and fundraising, to promote our understanding of healing mission and to support our overseas projects, is a major involvement of several sisters, by means of our magazine and giving mission appeals in England and Wales.
