Ms. SM Tereza was the organizer of SMRA Sangha and Ms. Mary Deepika was an ashram worker from Mathurapur. Ms. Mary and Ms. Mary Mukta took charge of the new sub-ashram for the first time.The ashram was a tiled house surrounded by brick walls. Next to it was a small kitchen. The church on the south side was used as a school house. Sacramento was kept in one corner of the sisters’ house, and only the church was taken on Sundays.
