Postulants Terry and Martha with Sr. Agnes Mativo (centre)

Ngarariga is about 45 minutes from Nairobi, to the north west, along the busy highway that ultimately leads to Uganda and Sudan. This house is the focus of formation for the Postulants and currently two Postulants and their Formator reside there as well as the Sister responsible for vocation promotion. The local secondary school and skills project for women started from mercy roots and now the Sisters provide important but minimal supervisory and supportive roles in these ministries. The area is heavily populated and gives plenty of opportunity for the long established mercy pattern of visitation.
