As Sisters of Our Lady of Sorrows we are faithful to
the grace of our founder, the Devout Elisabetta Renzi; "we
have a particular fondness for the children without homes or smiles"
We try to be respondant to the Church and to the social order of
our times creating for our children a foregoing future of peace
and harmony.
Our action field are the parishes where we collaborate, we do it
in a special way in the catechesis, the schools, the House Homes,
the Asylums, work shops, houses of assistance for students and for
children with incapacities and in any work that responds to the
demands of the our times.
Today, more than ever, we called to give our life in favor of the
poor and the excluded. To fill the emptiness of the children, shaping
them with human, moral and spiritual values, consolidating them
by means of the testimony of life always guided toward Christ; to
gradually increase awareness of human and Christian values in the
children, so this way they will live according to them in the daily
bases.
We believe that shaping should be based on the security of knowing
they're valued, welcomed and loved so they can learn to accept and
face their reality with maturity and liberty.
The children of Casa Hogar come from diverse backgrounds such as
abandonment, violence, abuse, family disintegration, extreme poverty
etc. They live (stay) 7 days a week, the 365 days a year, with the
exception of some for holidays with relatives or well-known friends.
To carry out their studies at various schools, and are distributed
accordingly. We make an effort to cover expenses and demands associated
such as uniforms, books and school supplies as well as tuitions.
