Since August 2023, the Sisters Hospitallers have been carrying out their mission in East Timor, a region marked by social, economic, and health challenges. This article brings us closer to their daily work, which goes beyond the walls of the center, traveling difficult roads to offer listening, care, dignity, and hope.

We invite you to watch this special video tribute, a reflection of the lives touched and the enduring spirit of our charism

To mark this meaningful anniversary, we have created a website that brings together our past, present, and future as Sisters Hospitallers.
