About Us

The idea of serving the people of Goa was conceived by the Capuchins as early as 1936.The idea was materialized only in 1941 when they pitched their tent on the outskirts of Mapusa (Karasko).

They were planning to build their residence at Peddem when Fr. Hippolito da Luna(1909-1942) who was director of “Collegio de Santo Antonio”(a boarding school) approached the Capuchins and offered to hand over to them the school, boarding, Chapel and adjoining property on the hill. Since Monte de Guirim had a long Franciscan history behind it (Most of Bardez was under the Franciscans from 15th to 17th century) the Capuchins readily accepted it. They took over the school in May 1942.
