Nigeria

From 1995 two Australian Sisters worked in education with the Irish Sisters of Charity in Nigeria. In the extremely large Primary School the Sisters used their vast experience of writing Sacramental programmes for Australian children, adapting them for their Nigerian counterparts. The roles of Bursar in the schools, parish ministry and supportive roles in the formation of young Nigerian Sisters of Charity also became part of the work of one of the Sisters. Language is always a difficulty for our Sisters working in overseas mission and nowhere more than in African countries.
