Sister Annarita: From the Italian countryside to the slums of Manila

For 27 years, Sister Annarita has been a missionary in the Philippines, in Mandaluyong City. She lives there among the poor, with some sisters of her congregation, the Fraternity of the Little Sisters of Jesus. Born into a modest family of five children in northern Italy, Sister Annarita felt a call to missionary life at an early age. For her, "the essential is not whether you do big or small things, but to proclaim the Gospel through our lives."
