Pauline
von Mallinckrodt lived in Germany during the 19th century. Witnessing the injustices
and poverty brought about by the Industrial Revolution, this wealthy young woman set about
serving Christ in the poor. She established a day care center for neglected children
and a school for the blind.
In 1849,
Pauline von Mallinckrodt founded a religious congregation, the Sisters of Christian
Charity, Daughters of the Blessed Virgin Mary of the Immaculate Conception, to continue
this service in the name of the Church and she added orphanages, kindergarten and regular
schools.
The
Sisters first came to the Philippines last January 25, 1995.
