The Congregation of the Sisters of St.Charles Borromeo was founded in
1684 by Fr. Adrien Brezy, Parish Priest of Wez(Diocese of Tournai,
Belgium) to impart Christian Education to the Poor children of his parish.
The year 1684 , the foundation year of the Congregation of the Sisters of
St. Charles Borromeo , coincided with the death centenary of St. Charles
Borromeo. Therefore, Fr. Adrien Bresy envisaged to St. Charles
Borromeo, the illustrious Cardinal of Milan, who had inspired him and
whom he admitted; who had the same ideals and the same spirit as he
who followed the hard and narrow way to reach the heights of sanctity,
as the patron of the new born congregation. He wished that the Sisters
would follow his footsteps, live up to his ideals and be guided by his way
of life.
