FOREIGN UNITS: Units directly under the Superior General
Besides the many units of the four Provinces, the Society has residential units that come directly under the Central Administration of the Society based in Porvorim, Goa. Four of these are based in Pilar among which is the Monastery, the Motherhouse of the Society. Retired and infirm members who have not opted for any of the Provinces reside in Pilar; three units are in other parts of Goa; and two in Chennai. In response to the pastoral needs of the Church abroad, the Society has accepted to send priests to help in these parishes. Thus our priests are serving in Oregon, Illinois and California in the U.S.A., Aprilia in Italy, Dirlewang and Tussenhausen in Germany, Deptford, Surrey, and the Asian Chaplaincy in U.K., and in Pokhara in neighbouring Nepal. |
