The sisterhood was founded on praying and doing mercy work since its birth and especially serving the ill, rescuing the needed and helping the orphans, the widows and the handicaps. It also preserves the participation to the civil mass, reciting the sisterhood duty every Wednesday of the week and organizing masses to the rest of the spirit of those who have arrived before us.
3- Brief about the sisterhood activities:
Contribution in founding the Immaculated conception altar in the ST Elias church, participation in the prayers on the rest of every lost soul in Kartaba and organization of
masses for every one them.
Doing charity deeds and helping poor families, watching over the church's clean state and doing reinforcement trips to many worshiping sites all across Lebanon.
The sisterhood has a presence in all the celebrations and the conferences that are held in the clergy and takes care of paying donations to the widowed to encourage the ecclesiastic invitations in the clergy .
