The Sisters were visiting Hanoi on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the Southern liberation.
During the reception, the VFF Vice President expressed his appreciation of the Sisters’ charitable works benefitting local people and disadvantaged children.
He hoped that the Miraculous Medal nuns would get more involved in activities that promote national solidarity and continue to raise underprivileged children to become responsible members of society.
The Miraculous Medal Church was founded in 1947. Since then, Sisters of the church have worked hard to support local communities.
