Welcome to Franciscan Clarist Congregation
Preface….
The history of Franciscan Clarist Congregation is the testimony of a handful of humble women being instrumentalized by the Almighty God for spreading His love. It is the saga of witnessing the Divine Providence in each and every juncture of life. With eight humble pious women and the paternal affection of Rt. Rev. Bp Charles Lavinge, FCC began its stride to “Holiness” with the armour of “Lowliness”. The seed that was planted by them at Changanasserry now has spread into 5 continents as 26 provinces and 4 regions in and out of India. Being in the 134th year of grace, FCC continues to sing God's praises and glories for all He has done through FCC to channel the Divine Love to the world.
For the fruitful ministry and for the spiritual and material well-being of the FCC sisters serving and studying in Germany a Regional House was established in Germany on 4th October 2008 with its headquarters at Surth, in the Archdiocese of Kolon. The Region has got a Regional Superior and three councillors and is functioning well, taking care of the spiritual, psychological, social and physical needs of the sisters in Germany. This Region constitutes sisters from various provinces of the Franciscan Clarist Congregation residing in Germany. For convenience's sake, the office of the Regional House was shifted from Surth to Wuppertal on 28th Dec. 2011 named as St. Remigious Regional House. Retreats, Animation Programmes, Monthly Recollections, FCC Fraternal Gatherings and Franciscan celebrations are being regularly conducted here.
