The Socio-Pastoral Apostolate, or SPA, is one of the implementing arms of the missionary endeavors of the Manila Priory. The sisters are assigned to the social apostolate in the outreach centers of our schools and hospitals. Those sisters took to heart the fiat they prayed in response to the exhortation from Micah 6:8: „And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.“ And so they walked, they talked, and they walked their talk on the periphery.
