Cercenasco is a small village consisting mainly of fields. The faith of the people is strong and they take part actively in all the liturgical celebrations. The community here was opened on 28 September 2008. The sisters are engaged in the pastoral activities of the parish and sub centres: meeting the spiritual needs of the people, taking communion to the sick, conducting the rosary, etc. A sister nurse is employed in the Fondazione Ceppi di Bairols Aged Home run by the church and municipality.
