The inter-congregational community of Kabul
The PBK community is inter-congregational, formed by sisters belonging to different women’s religious Congregations. It is committed to live and give expression to the ecclesial reality of communion of charisms. This was the intention of the Congregations belonging to CISM and USMI , which felt themselves challenged by the cry of John-Paul II in his Christmas message of 2001: “Let us save the children of Kabul” and wanted to give a response. These sisters live in Kabul, Afghanistan, in solidarity with a country and a people marked by ancestral tribal tensions, proud of their cultural and religious identity, and lacerated by interminable wars. Their strength is their trust in God, the Trinity of Love. Putting their charisms in common, they experience and give witness that living together in peace, Gospel fraternity and the forgiveness Jesus asked his disciples to practise are possible, and that for today’s world they are a strong sign that is still capable of causing surprise. They show this in prayer, fraternal life and mission. They are committed to caring for mentally disabled children and to realising the PBK Association’s project of solidarity.
At the present time there are three resident sisters:
sr.Martha Catharine Barkat delle Suore Domenicane di Santa Caterina
Sr.Mariammal Irudayasami, Guanellian Sisters ( FSMP )
sr. Chalaveettil Antony Seena Sisters of St Joseph Benedict Cottolengo
