Welcome to Franciscan Clarist Congregation
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.
Villa Santa Chiara, Casa di Procura of FCC in Rome, established on 23rd November 2003. It always strives to be prompt in communicating and doing whatever matters instructed by our Mother General to various offices in the Holy See and vice versa. It is a pleasant task to facilitate the entry of our Mother General and Provincial Superiors for their official visits or any other tasks related to their office and also of our sisters who come to study or work in Italy by giving necessary documents. The community of Villa Santa Chiara stands as the symbol of the unity and uniqueness of Franciscan Fraternal life. FCC Mission in Italy consists of various Apostolic activities such as Caring for the sick, Parish Ministry, and Primary Education.
