Summer 2025
Summer is a season of growth — a time when nature reminds us of God’s abundant goodness. In that same spirit, the School Sisters of St. Francis are joyfully planting seeds of compassion, peace, and hope in communities around the world.
Today, we invite you to help nurture new seeds of hope in Indonesia and Tanzania, where our sisters are expanding their mission to serve women, children, and families in need.
We are thrilled to share that St. Francis Province in North India has launched a new mission in Maumere, Indonesia. Sisters Francy and Sunita arrived in early June and are immersing themselves in the local language and culture. This vital first step will allow them to offer meaningful pastoral care and essential medical services to underserved communities.
In southeast Tanzania, the dream of our foundresses to serve in Africa is becoming a beautiful reality. Ten sisters of the Assisi Province in South India are courageously addressing urgent needs: illiteracy, poverty, early marriage, and lack of opportunity for young girls. Through education, vocational training, health care, and Gospel values, they are transforming lives and nurturing hope for future vocations from within the local community.
These missions are just two examples of how your generosity helps us respond to God’s call.
Will you help us grow these and other life-giving ministries with a gift today? Your donation — no matter the size — supports the global mission of the School Sisters of St. Francis, bringing clean water, solar energy, education, and healing to those who need it most.
When you give, you do more than make a donation — you plant something eternal. Your support brings light to places where our presence is growing, but the needs are already great.
We hope this summer has brought you joy, peace, and the deep satisfaction of knowing your generosity is helping love bloom across the world.
Gratefully,
| Sister Deborah Fumagalli |
