About Us

We are Bethany Sisters

The Congregation of the Sisters of the Little Flower of Bethany, popularly known as Bethany Sisters, was founded in Mangalore on July 16, 1921 by the late Msgr Raymond Francis Camillus Mascarenhas. “Let Bethany grow, flower and bear fruit” has been our constant prayer during the centenary year of the Congregation. As if in answer to this prayer, the Congregation of the Sisters of the Little Flower of Bethany erected its 8th Province on the 6th of August, 2020 named as Silchar Province. It is carved out of Northeast Province, the latter being renamed as Guwahati Province on the 29th of July 2020. Read More »

Mission

Our Apostolic Activities

Our educational ministry aims at making the will of God come true by formation of the whole human person. Through education, we strive to transform the society by creating a new world order of freedom, fellowship, equality and justice. Pastoral service has been part and parcel of our institute’s life and ministry. Family visits, catechesis, pastoral tours, involvement in the activities in the parish sub-station churches, and various organizations in the parish-youth, women, children, prayer groups etc., are our ways of remaining close to the people.

To support and collaborate with us in our mission we have an organisation of committed men and women called Bethany Lay Association (BLA) in most of the parishes where we work. Hostels have become an integral part of our education ministry. Through our hostels we offer to children and youth from rural area. As followers of Christ every Bethany Sister has the mission of awakening in every human heart a quest for the divine and share the compassionate love of Jesus with humanity. The formation of a Bethany Sister (BS) is a Faith journey that involves six key stages: Affiliate/Candidacy, Pre-Novitiate, Novitiate, Juniorate, Tertianship and Ongoing Formation. Read More »
