 | | The ministries of the Western Province include early childhood, elementary, and secondary education, Religious education centers, before and after-school programs, youth ministry, adult education, outreach programs for poor and disadvantaged women and children, boys and girls clubs, a lay young adult volunteer program, and summer camp programs. |
 | | Today, there are 102 Sisters in the Western Province of which 91 are actively involved in ministries or administration in fifteen different communities. |
