Holy Cross Brothers from
the Midwest U.S.A. Province went to Ghana in 1957 to take over the administration
of St. John's Secondary School in Sekondi. This commitment to the church
and people of West Africa soon expanded to include St. Augustine's College
at Cape Coast, Ghana, and St. Patrick's Secondary School in Monrovia,
Liberia, this latter commitment being forced to close because of the
Liberian civil war. Holy Cross sisters began mission in Ghana in 1983.
The 32 Holy Cross religious presently in Ghana serve primarily in secondary
level education, at an Institute for Continuing Formation of Religious,
and in a Basic Skills Program giving technical education to poor and
at-risk youth.
