SOCIETY OF THE PRECIOUS BLOOD    SPB

Lesotho

 

  Five Sisters of the Society of the Precious Blood at Burnham Abbey came to Masite in Lesotho in 1957 to join with a community of African women, with the intention of forming a multi-cultural contemplative community dedicated to intercession.  In 1966, this community at Masite became autonomous, although still maintaining strong ties of friendship with Burnham Abbey.  In 1980, a House of Prayer was established in Kimberley in South Africa, which has developed a more active branch of the Society.
