We are the midst of celebrating the 200th Anniversary of our Foundation ~ the first house of the Canossian Daughters of Charity began on May 8th in 1808 in San Zeno, Italy.
Today we are spread worldwide seeking to bring the immense love that emanated from Jesus as he hung on the Cross
~ the Cross of our salvation to one and all!
Today, in Singapore, we the Canossians offer our loving services in Education via formal and informal schools. We offer Faith formation, retreats, counseling and often simply a listening ear for those who come to us. We give our energies to serving the poorest and those in need in the hospitals, elderly homes, prisons and parishes.
The Canossians premise is simply to “make Jesus known and loved” in the spirit of Jesus Crucified, in the footsteps of St Magdalene of Canossa and under the maternal cloak of Mary, Mother of love. Thus we are yours… Daughters of Charity, Servants of the Poor! We warmly welcome you to our Canossian world!
Shalom!
