Sr. Anna Chan, SC, Foundress and General Superior of the Servants of the Cross went home to be with the Lord on February 4, 2025.
She was born Easter Sunday in Toronto on April 11, 1971, to Rodolfo and Esther Chan, and was baptized the next day. She grew up in a loving faith-filled home and was part of the Charismatic Renewal since her early teens…

The mission of the Community on Sr. Anna’s heart from the beginning was evangelization, bringing Jesus to the world one person at a time. The Community has established the vision of
“creating a path for the church deployed to make Jesus irresistible to all people.”

Thank you to everyone who has expressed their condolences and support. As we come together as a wider community to celebrate the life of Sr. Anna, we would love to capture the beautiful stories that others share with us. 

Share with us through video and text the memories that you treasure at this time. 

Pray with us our daily prayer:

“Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ on behalf of his body, which is the church, of which I am a minister in accordance with God’s stewardship given to me to bring to completion for you the word of God, the mystery hidden from ages and from generations past.”
Col. 1:24-26
