Sr. Rose Mary Khin Pan has informed us that the project for the security of St Luke’s Convent, in Nam Sang village in Myanmar has been completed. A newly constructed security wall protects the convent and school, which was exposed to the risk of intruders and theft. The implementation of this security wall now keeps the sisters and children safe in the complex.
Sr. Rose Mary and the children are grateful for the help of the PIME Mission Center and its supporters for this much needed and invaluable help. St. Luke’s Convent is home to poor children, especially orphans, the marginalized and the needy. The sisters care for the children’s education and vocation. All now feel secure to support the children entrusted to their care, providing them with needed schooling and the opportunity of other vocational skills, according to their needs and interests.
The sisters offer their humble service for the good of these poor children and their community exists to highlight faith and worship in proclaiming the Gospel and in bearing witness to God’s mercy towards others. St Luke’s Convent is a place where peace and love embrace these children, who thank you for providing for their safety.
