A notable exception is the community of Kankan, located in the eastern region.

Let's share love and hope with our world ...
In each of our locations, we seek to be living witnesses to the Gospel, sharing the love and hope of Christ with everyone, without distinction.
Even in areas where there is a strong Muslim presence, our mission is carried out with respect and dialogue.
Our apostolate manifests itself mainly through education and health services that respond to people's concrete needs while promoting human dignity.
Today ...
Our apostolate is particularly active in the fields of education and health.
