Welcome to the Little Sisters of Mary Immaculate of Gulu
CHARISM OF THE LSMIG.
The Congregation of the Little Sisters of Mary Immaculate of
Gulu was founded for missionary service, in which the Sisters dedicate
themselves to the task of evangelization and salvation of mankind, filled with
the burning love of Jesus in dedicated missionary service to the vulnerable.
Taking Mary as our model, the Little Sisters of Mary Immaculate, with Mary,
witness Christ love and service.
THE MISSION OF THE CONGREGATION:
To bring the burning love of Jesus
to the most vulnerable: children, women, the sick and the disadvantaged though:
Christian education in school
Pastoral, catechetical, liturgical instruction
Health units – hospitals, healing centers and dispensaries
Others fields in response to the needs of the Church
In the Congregation the Sisters therefore serve in different
fields of apostolate as teachers, medical doctors, clinical officers, nurses,
tutors, catechists, social workers, journalists and administrators.
The aim of the founder was to eradicate ignorance from the
society using education as a powerful tool of evangelization. The sisters have
taken to heart the founder’s mission of liberating the whole humanity from the
bondage of “ignorance” through education. We are involved in education right
from kindergarten to University levels.
