AMALALAY

SHM’s Madh Island community began reaching out to the people of the Malwani slum in 1984 at the invitation of Fr Denis Pereira of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Orlem. They started tailoring classes for young girls, and later began a balwadi.

​

In 2000 the community moved into a small room at Malwani gate No. 8 to avoid travelling daily from Andheri. The Amalalaya Convent was established in 2003. Part of this house was donated by late Mr Lawrence Lucas Miranda and the other part was purchased. The convent was later renovated and blessed on 28 February 2018.

​

The community strives to empower women and children through various social and educational initiatives. Through their family visits and socio-educational initiatives the sisters have brought positive changes in the lives of the people.
