MMB in Japan
(Tokyo, Chigasaki, Hiroshima, Hagi)

In JAPAN we are ninety Sisters in 12 communities situated in four cities: Tokyo, Chigasaki, Hiroshima and Hagi. We work in different ministries: formal and informal Education, Pastoral ministry, activities in solidarity with the excluded, Peace and Justice movement, and a House of Prayer.

We feel that the promotion of international solidarity through our global MMB networking (web), is a relevant way to share our Charism in this country where the percentage of the Catholic population is extremely small, only 3%.  Through this networking, we globalize the compassion of the God of Jesus for our suffering humanity. We want to do this: "Cooperating in dialogue and prayer with other religions, ecumenical churches and other groups which work for peace, ecology an d the decrease in poverty".

Ministries:

• education (formal & informal)

• pastoral ministry

• house of prayer

• activities in solidarity with the excluded

• Migrants

• Peace & justice movements
