Our community

As a religious community of sisters, we follow the Rule of St Augustine and live out the spirituality of the Devotio Moderna: a return to the source of the Christian ideal of the first community in Jerusalem, with a view to renewing the Church and society.

Our spiritual life as Canonesses rests on two pillars: communal and individual prayer on the one hand, and communal life on the other. From this foundation, we seek to serve our fellow human beings. We have done this for many years, amongst other things, in our school and subsequently in welcoming guests.

We belong to the Congregation of Windesheim, which consists of various communities, including a young community in Rwamagana and Butare. Donations are welcome to the following account number: Community of Rwamagana - BE10 3630 1847 4904
