The New FMDM Secretariat in Nigeria

The FMDM in Nigeria is 70 this year (2020) and what better way to celebrate than to have a secretariat to go with this memorial year. The secretariat named St Francis Secretariat was opened on the 29th September 2020, and is located close to our community house at Rantya, State Low-cost, in Jos, Plateau State.

The Eucharistic celebration marking the opening was officiated by the Provincial Superior of the Augustinian Order, Fr. John Abubakar along with Fr. Patrick Sheyi and Fr. Raymond Hickey. Also, in attendance were our Associates and lay partners.

Mission statement of FMDM Secretariat

As Franciscan missionaries of the Divine Motherhood (FMDM), we are called to proclaim with our lives the joy and freedom of the Gospel in the same spirit of Francis and Clare of Assisi. Our charism encourages us to conceive, birth, and nurture the life of love in our society. We are one in our mission although our ministries are diverse.
