Daughters of St. Anne

The congregation of the Daughters of St. Anne, was founded by Mother Rosa Gattorno in 1886, Piacenza in Italy.  She was born in Genova on October 14, 1831, and grew up, in all serenity, in a Catholic family.

Mother  Rosa  Gattorno has been a fiancée, a spouse and a mother of three children.  This variety of experiences has enriched the personality of the foundress with an extraordinary sense of humanity.  With her sisters rather than a superior she has always been a mother.  Mother Rosa Gattorno died on 6th May 1900 in Rome and is declared "Blessed" by His Holiness John Paul II on 9th April 2000.

The Charism of the Daughters of St. Anne is to strive for holiness following in the footsteps of Christ in the mystery of His Poverty (within the church) serve their brothers and sisters with maternal dedication, living familiar life under the guidance of St. Anne.

The sisters first came to Ethiopia in 1968, and the first house was in Addis Ababa.
