Highways and Byways

Highways and Byways – Healing the Land, Healing Ourselves, Together was established in 2019 by us, the Missionary Sisters of Service, to continue our vision and mission into the future. It was formerly known as the John Wallis Foundation, which had been established in 2010. In December 2024 the Highways and Byways Small Grants program and the Free2B Girls program in Tasmania became part of Mary MacKIllop Today. There has been a strong friendship between the Missionary Sisters of Service and the Sisters of Saint Joseph for many years. A voluntary Consultative Committee of members who have a long association with Highways and Byways, will be part of the grants theme discernment and assessment each year.  The programs will continue to express the particular character and spirit that has inspired our work since 1944.
