History and Ministries of the Jinja Mission

In 1993 three Sisters began missionary work in Jinja, a station in Uganda, at the northern shore of Lake Victoria. On July 11, 2009 the Sisters dedicated their new Convent. Jinja is a part of the Generalate District.

St. Benedict's Center with a clinic and kindergarten was opened in 1996.

The fertile land and moderate climatic conditions allow the sisters to maintain fruits and vegetable gardens, as well as some cattle.

The Sisters own and administer St. Benedict's grade school with over 600 students.
