                                In memory of the Easter of our Mother Louise, it is good to meditate on an extract from her circular on “Everything passes” from January 1959.

                                In São Tomé and Príncipe, elderly people are targets of violence, based on the conviction that elderly people are witches. The lack of a family structure that can ensure the elderly's subsistence and a dignified retirement causes many situations of elderly abandonment. It is in this reality that we, the Franciscan sisters, seek to respond to some concrete situations for the approximately 70 elderly people in our district.
