About me

Who is Mary Jane?

Mary Jane is a simple catholic nun who has great passion for the less fortunate in the society especially vulnerable orphaned children who have nobody to care for them. Due to my boundless trust in the divine providence I founded St. Vincent Maisha Bora Centre (CBO) a project for orphans and vulnerable children in our world today.This divine goodness does not compel me to repudiate the happiness it destines for humanity, but it has every right, doubtless, to be loved for itself alone without any reflection on our own interests. Therefore total renunciation without reserve or limit has no thoughts of self-interest- it thinks but of God, of His good pleasure, of His wishes and of His glory.

For this reason I have courage and determination to preach to all mankind in a very simple way in our ordinary daily duties and obligations; there we experience God in His infinite mercy and goodness when we realize that we are God’s instruments and so God has no hands to carry the vulnerable but yours, no legs to walk to reach those who need him but yours, no ears to listen to the cries of those who are suffering but yours, no eyes to see the misery in the vulnerable but yours, no mouth to speak for the voiceless but yours and no heart to love tenderly all those thirsting for his mercy and unconditional love but yours.

It doesn’t matter who you are and where you are. All I encourage you is that Yahweh is so good, so upright, he teaches the way to sinners; in all that is right he guides the humble and instructs the poor in his ways. Psalm 25: 8-9
