The MWIA is a small segment of a larger Mary Ward International Network. It was obviously founded by Mary Ward, although it continues today with the help of the Loreto Sister, and their colleagues whom assist with missionary projects in over 23 countries.
There are several social justice programs being run by the Loreto Sisters internationally. - Firstly, Loreto Sister Anne Kelly is working in Uganda and Timor Leste to help prevent human sex trafficking. In 2010 she was appointed a three year term as an IBVM NGO Representative at the UN. |
