Assisi Nilaya
In May 1971, Mother Marie Marguerite, the then Regional Superior, began a new community in the archdiocese of Bangalore, in a rented house near NBCLC. The purpose of this new venture was to provide better opportunities for the spiritual, religious and academic formation of the young women joining the congregation. Thus, they would also give their services to the local church and society in accordance with their charism.
In October of the same year a property with a modest house named Assisi Nilaya located on 2, Palmgrove Road, Assisi Nilaya continues to be a house for the formation of the young sisters as much as a centre for the other Sisters. Besides it serves as:-
Study House for sisters doing various courses
Retreats, Seminars, Meetings
Health Centre for those needing advanced
Our Missionaries coming home for holidays
the sisters have rendered their services to St. Mary’s Orphanage of the diocese and also to the National Holy Childhood Office in the early years. At present our services continue in the following mission
Teaching Catechism in the Parish
Pastoral visits to the sick and aged in hospitals and their homes,
Ministering the Eucharist
Visits to the slums
Visits to the homes for the aged
A crèche for the poor domestic workers’
Our Mission and Charism as FSM is thus fulfilled in reaching out to the poor,those in need and making hospitality our watchword to all people.
