Shanthi Dham (Abode of Peace) is a Fransalian (Missionaries of St. Francis de Sales) initiative in Mysuru, Karnataka, South India, inspired by the life of Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who found Jesus in the distressing disguise of the poorest of the poor and served Him in the poorest of the poor, the unwanted, homeless, orphans, lepers, neglected and unloved people.

We rejoice that major construction work is complete and we are moving along with internal finishing and furnishing! Construction of Shanthi Dham began in February 2024; we are grateful to be able to share Father’s latest video. Check out the Photo Gallery for the latest photos, as well as images from throughout the project.
