Members of the Congregation
Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, Salesian Sisters
The official title of the
Congregation is Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, in Italian: Figlie
di Maria Ausiliatrice, from which the official initials F.M.A. derive and
apply to all the Salesian Sisters working throughout the world.
The Daughters of Mary Help of
Christians are present in 85 countries on all continents, with their
active concern for the young through educational activities formal and
informal, in schools at all levels, youth centres, health care, community
and social services in mission areas, residences for students and working
girls.
Three Salesian sisters arrived
in Ethiopia on February 16, 1984 to give their services at the Apostolic
Nunciature in Addis Ababa, with a fourth Sister joining them on October 3,
1988. They served the Church at this level until 1997.
On February 1, 1986 another
small community took over the work at the Catholic Mission in Dilla (Sidamo)
with kindergarten. Promotional activities for girls and young women,
dispensary and community health care, youth center with various
promotional, educational, religious and recreational activities. The
promotional activities evolved into a Vocational Training Center which is
now a Technical School. A Secretarial Computer course was added which has
now reached the level of College. One more Kindergarten was opened in the
city of Dilla, and a Literacy programme in the Mission compound.
In 1987, the new Mission in
Zway (Shewa) was opened with kindergarten, women's promotion, Christian
formation, youth center with promotional, Christian formation recreational
and other activities. Later on, the Women Promotion center was upgraded
to Vocational School, which is now a Technical School. A
secretarialComputer course was added which has now reached the level of
college. One more Kindergarten was opened in the city of Dilla, and a
litrecy programme in the mission compound.
In 1987,
the new mission in Zeway (East Shewa) was opened with Kindrgarten, Women's
Promotion Center, with promotional, recreational and formation activities.
Later the Women Promotion was upgraded to Technical School. Now the Mary
Help College runs the Diuploma Programme in Information Technology and
Fashion designer, besides a Teacher Training (in Amharic and in Afan
Oromo).
The Litrecy
Programme is recognised as Adult Education, allowing young people to join
the scond cycle of formal education (5th grade). Lately a new Kindergarten
and the Primary School (grade 1-8) have been added in the town.
A come and
see programme is open to all young girls who want to stay with us and
experience our life donated to God for the young people.
On July 30, 1990, the first
house in Addis Ababa was opened for the formation of young candidates for
our religious institute. The community opened up its facilities to the
needy girls and young women of the area who attend in large number the
various promotional and educational activities throughout the week. In
1994 a Vocational School was opened for the professional preparation of
girls towards some form of employment. Later on a literacy programme was
added and in the year 2002 a secretarial course became also part of the
Mary Mazzarello Vocational Training Centre.
In 1994 the Congregation established in Adwa (Tigray) and in l996 a
Women's Promotion Centre and Nursery School for children of young mothers
began. A Youth Centre was open to the youth of the town with religious,
social and recreational activities. The women promotion activities were
changed to vocational training centre, which has now developed into a
technical school. A course in computer was also started for students and
for working people; a primary school was open in 1998 and is now at the
6th level.
