Description:
We are extremely privileged to celebrate the two hundredth anniversary of the Congregation of Jesus and Mary which was founded by our mother foundress St. Claudine Thevenet in France in 1818. In the year 1842, a group of 6 courageous nuns decided to bring the beacon of CJM to India and established St. Patrick’s Junior College, Agra. As the cradle institution of CJM in India, we feel honoured to host the commencement of the bicentenary celebrations in our school. Asia's first convent College in Agra is celebrating 200 years old of the foundation of the Congregation of Jesus and Mary (CJM) with four days of activities. Mother Superior General Sister Monica Joseph along with heads of CJMs from 28 countries, including three Pakistani sisters and the cardinal of Lyons in France, are participating in the deliberations.
