We invite you to celebrate the Society's Centenary anniversary by watching the trailer to our new film, Fire and Flame – 100 Years of Healing Presence – Medical Mission Sisters

Made by Loyola Productions Munich to celebrate our Centenary year, the Society's new film, which was launched in May 2025, is inspired by the words of our Austrian founder, Dr Anna Dengel:I was passionate (fire and flame) about becoming a missionary with a clear goal in mind. I was determined to become a missionary doctor and do something that only women can do for women in need."

The full version of the film is below.

This is the full version of our newly launched documentary film, Fire and Flame - 100 Years of Healing Presence - Medical Mission Sisters

The film is nearly 30 minutes long.

We hope you enjoy it and, if you do, please don't forget to tell your friends and family to watch it as well and help to spread the word about what we do.

We look forward to your ongoing support!

  • The Call to Love

    Love is the impetus which gives our way of life its meaning and direction,
    empowering us to commit all that we have and all that we are
    to help bring about a world where all live in harmony.
