Description | : The long cherished desire
of Mundur parishioners came into reality by the foundation of the new convent
within the premises of their parish. They talked about this subject with our
foremothers, Mother Clare and Mother Louisa. The convent has adopted the patronship
of St. Francis of Assisi and is founded on 5th September 1933. Mother
Louisa was appointed as the first Mother
Superior. Sisters started to teach in primary school which had already existed
there and later it had become their prominent apostolic ministry The school
building was urgently reconstructed and it was a refuge for the local people at
the time of strong storm in 1946. The parish is enriched by
the diversity of the apostolic activities of F.C.C. sisters. Franciscan Third
Order was started at Mundoor church to commemorate the Golden jubilee year of
FCC in Thrissur. The parallel college which was initiated in 1980 was a strong
platform for the girls to continue their education after schooling. They have
been engaging in the ministry of spreading the love of
Christ and building up the kingdom of heaven. |
