Dominican Sisters of Charity of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin

Called to be the lovers of the world and preachers of hope

Sr. Vimala Vadakumpadan and her council felt that, as the Vice-Province is growing we must extend our missionary presence into newer places. In view of this they decided to accept the invitation of Rt. Rev.Dr.Dominic Kokkat, CST, Bishop of Gorakhpurr to establish a community in Basti, a mission station which had been entrusted by Bishop Dominic Kokkat CSt to the Little Flower Congregation during the year 1997.

As per our agreement with the CST Congregation our mission in Basti is to teach in St.Basis’s School managed and administered by CST Fathers, and to offer services of the pastoral , evangelical and social developmental activities of the parish.

The sisters actively participate in pastoral ministry of St. Basil’s parish, through liturgical preparations, teaching Catechism and house visits etc.The school activities keep everyone busy. Admissions, exams, results are the routine works and there goes the days, months and the years.

They run a Hindi medium for the poor children of the surrounding village attached to the English medium was a dream come true for Fr.Lona, the Principal. Sisters joyfully extended their free services to this venture and found satisfaction in doing it. They visited the neighbouring villages inspired the children to join the school and also appealed to the parents to take interest in their children’s education.

One sister works with the CST fathers NGO as a project officer. The extreme climate, the demands of the mission in the school, parish and at home keep challenging the sisters to live the charism of our Mother Foundress and they continued to respond to it with new enthusiasm and vigour.
