Education -A Life Giving Mission

 

 

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven". (Mt5/16) Amala's vision of education is the same as that of Jesus'vision of a new society with the kingdom of God as its goal -a society in which "all might have life-life in its fullness," liberated from the shackles and bondage of ignorance and oppression.

We are of deep conviction that we are called by God and empowered by Jesus to continue His life giving mission and our task is to make our educational institutions "Centers of Good news for all". To achieve this we have to begin with self-evangelization resulting in personal witnessing.

Our educational ministry is spread in 04 states 09 dioceses and 17 schools.

Total number of sisters in the Apostolate of Education is 70.

It should enable the human person to contribute towards a harmonious world with values of justice, love, truth, tolerance, compassion and thereby becomes a channel of peace and joy to family, the nation and the world, It imparts an appreciation of the Indian heritage and enables the students to imbibe its culture and ethos for building a harmonious society irrespective of faith, language, caste and the class and at the same time to remain open to positive elements of other cultures. We strive to reach out to the star of perfection through an earnest pursuit of excellence and our efforts blossom into 'service' through our creative and empathetic involvement in the society to transform it. Being inspired by St. Francis and St. Clare, the Founders of Franciscan Clarist Congregation, our Schools are pro-active to define and re-define its mission and strategies reading the signs of time.
