Benebikira Sisters
The Benebikira Sisters are a Roman Catholic religious institute of women founded in Rwanda in the early 1900s. Their Charisma is to evangelize by example. They do this by their diverse works of service, carried out with joy and love. Their mission is education, particularly for girls, care of the sick and the poor, especially women and children. Their spirituality is based on the Jesuit model of contemplation in action, seeing God in all things. However the expression of their Catholic faith and consecrated spirituality is formed by their Rwandan culture. The Benebikira are one with their people, sharing their Christian faith that calls them to be a people of hope and a voice for justice and love. Numbering almost 400 sisters, they have 55 communities located primarily in Rwanda but also in Burundi, Uganda, Congo, Kenya, and Rome. Their Rwandese name means “Daughters of Mary” in English.
== History ==
Msgr. Jean Joseph Hirth of the Society of the Missionaries of Africa began the establishment of the Benebikira sisters in 1913 with the acceptance of a small group of young women as aspirants. Msgr. Hirth envisioned that the Benebikira would be a native Rwandan congregation whose life of consecration and works of service would be expressed through their own Rwandan culture. At the beginning, however, he put their formation under the direction of the Missionaries of our Lady of Africa who would be responsible for the Benebikira order for the next forty years.〔The Order of Benebikira Sisters, Historic Preview 1919-2008, URUMURI Special n. 05/08/2008 pp. 4-9〕 In 1916, a noviate was set up and in 1919 the first Benebikira sister pronounced her religious vows and the group was recognized by the Holy See as a Devout Union. In 1935 they were approved as a Diocesan right congregation. In 1953 the Rwandan Benebikira sisters elected their first Mother General and Council and thus assumed full responsibility for the governance of their order. In 2008, they received the status of Pontifical Right from the Holy See.〔The Order of Benebikira Sisters, Historic Preview 1919-2008, URUMURI Special n. 05/08/2008 pp. 16-18〕 Expansion to other countries began with the Congo in 1961, Burundi, 1973, Uganda, 1982, Kenya 1995, and Italy, 2008.
