Daughters of Charity

November 29 is the anniversary of the founding of the Daughters of Charity.

In western Mauritania, a community of Daughters of Charity lives in Atar, deep in the desert. The sisters are devoted to the education of children and the formation and integration of young people and women. The population lacks everything.

The Company of the Daughters of Charity was founded on November 29, 1633: after years of spiritual discernment and preparation, Louise gathered a group of young women dedicated to serving the poor, forming a community rooted in charity and solid virtues.

On November 27, we celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. This video was shared on the website of the Daughters of Charity International.
