Missionary Sisters Servants of the Holy Spirit, Philippine South (SSpS)
The Missionary Sisters Servants of the Holy Spirit – Philippine South (SSpS) belongs to a religious missionary international congregation recognized by the Catholic Church. The SSpS was founded in 1889 by St. Arnold Janssen, Blessed Maria Helena Stollenwerk and Blessed Josepha Stenmans in Steyl, Netherlands and rooted in a Trinitarian Mission Spirituality, with ministries covering education, health, pastoral care, spiritual guidance, adult education, communication, cathechetics, chaplaincy work, social work and interfaith dialogue.
