The Congregation of the Sisters of the Cross of Chavanod is an Institute of Consecrated Life of Pontifical Right which was started in Chavanod, South East of France, in 1838 by Mother Claudine Echernier and Father Pierre Marie Mermier. Their charism is to participate generously in the Mystery of Jesus’ death and Resurrection in the world for the salvation of all mankind. They are concerned in making God known and loved by all. They are involved in education, health care, pastoral work and social work. They have communities in Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and North America. They have been in Cameroon in the Archdiocese of Yaounde since 1987.
The sisters packed out of the Diocese due to Anglophone Crises.
