Church activity in Sierra Leone Church activity in Sierra Leone
We, Xaverian Missionaries, arrived in Sierra Leone in 1950. We started out in the north where the population is predominantly Muslim and therefore the Gospel finds it hard to make inroads. There we concentrated our attention on schools, cooperatives, health care, and the victims of leprosy.
Today we are 20 men from various countries assisting the Diocese of Makeni and the Archdiocese of Freetown.
