Franciscan Missionaries of Christ The King - Administration

Administration

Due to the increasing numbers of members and apostolates spread through various regions of India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, a need was felt to decentralize the administration for better efficiency and organization. During its 10th General Chapter held in 2005, the congregation decided to divide its administration into two provinces: the Province of St Francis of Assisi in Pakistan and St. Clare's Province in India. The Province in India consists of the Archdiocese of Goa and Daman, Archdiocese of Mumbai, Dioceses of Vasai and Pune.

Sister Pushpa Abraham, F.M.K.C., was elected as the new Superior General of the congregation on June 6, 2010, at their Generalate in Old Goa. There are 174 sisters working in remote areas all over India.

A Formation House (a centre of learning for women who wish to enter the congregation) and Generalate (centre of administration) for the Franciscan Missionaries of Christ the King was constructed in Old Goa in 2005. It consists of classrooms, dormitories, refectory with kitchen and a chapel in a two-story building.
