Feeding the Hungry, Comforting the Sorrowful at St. Peter Claver School
Sister Chantal, Sister Meltah, and their colleagues at St. Peter Claver School teach, feed, and console the students, as SNDs have done since the school opened more than 90 years ago. Sister Meltah Thaka is the pastoral caregiver for school community, while Sister Chantal Kisimbila (right) offers individual and group counseling to 200 students.
These two Sisters and a compassionate staff help smooth the rough edges of life for more than 1000 students. A child comes to school crying because her mother died of AIDS that morning. Another is living with cystic fibrosis, with no access to the medical care that would be standard in Europe or the United States. Still others depend on the school even for food. As Sister Chantal, Sister Meltah, and their colleagues meet basic human needs, these children of a poor South African township experience that God is indeed good.
