Spirituality

The Spirituality Centre is located in Nchete House in Assumption Parish, Mazabuka. Zambian people are hungry for God. One Sister co-ordinates the various programmes – Bible Study, Faith Sharing, Spiritual Direction, Guided Prayer, Directed Retreats and Days of Reflection. These programmes are conducted regularly throughout the year.

The prayer room is an oasis for people where they can find quiet and peace to reflect and share. On-going faith formation is offered to local people involved in prayer guides and spiritual direction. One Sister also operates a lending library where books, tapes, CD’s and DVD’s can be borrowed.

Rainbows Programme

Catherine McAuley carried within her the words of Christ “As long as you did it to the least of my brothers you did it to me” (Mt. 25:40). Following in Catherine’s footsteps the Rainbows Programme offers courage, strength, comfort, and consolation to the many families and individuals bereaved due to the HIV/AIDS pandemic.
