Franciscan Missionaries of Christ the King : ウィキペディア英語版 | Franciscan Missionaries of Christ the King The Franciscan Missionaries Sisters of Christ the King (F.M.C.K.) is a Roman Catholic religious congregation for women that originated in what is now Pakistan and founded schools, orphanages, homes for the aged and disabled and hospitals throughout the country. (Not to be confused with the Franciscan Sisters of Christ the King in the United States.) ==History==
The congregation was founded in 1937 by Mother Bridget Sequeira (a native of Saligao, North Goa, then part of Portuguese India) in Karachi, which was a part of British India. The congregation chose a white sari with a border of three red lines printed along the edge. The three border lines represented the 3 vows of chastity, poverty and obedience that the Religious make.〔Sister Ursula, F.M.C.K. Foot Prints On The Sands Of Time. Lourdes Convent, Saligao, India〕 A prospectus of the congregation was published by the Rotti Press in 1948.〔Prospectus of the Franciscan Missionaries of Christ King, Karachi. Rotti Press, 1948〕 The congregation celebrated its platinum jubilee on July 28, 2012, when Joseph Coutts, the Archbishop of Karachi presided at a Mass for the Sisters. The congregation has grown to around 300 sisters.〔(Express Tribune August 5, 2012 )〕
