Community of St Mary the Virgin

Wantage Overseas

‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst
for righteousness’ Matthew 5:6

 

In the early days of our Community we established houses in India and South Africa, and later Botswana. In recent years we have also had a link with the Society of the Servants of Jesus Christ (FMJK Sisters) in Madagascar.

Today we no longer have houses abroad, but continue to maintain links and support the work in which we have been involved (together with other projects) through Wantage Overseas. This includes St John’s Home for the elderly and orphans, and various hostels and schools in Pune, India; Holy Cross Hospice for those living with AIDS in Botswana; school bursaries for young people in South Africa.

Administration Costs are kept to a minimum and if you would like to give a donation or would like further information, please contact:
