Handmaids of Christ.
The Christa Sevika Sangha (Handmaids of Christ), CSS, is an Anglican religious order founded in 1970, and based in Jobarpar, Bangladesh. It is a part of the Anglican Church of Bangladesh, and was originally attached to the Sisterhood of the Epiphany. Like them, the Sevikas have a longstanding attachment to the Oxford Mission, and are often referred to simply as the "Oxford Mission Sisters". The sisters supervise hostels and children's centers, and gather for prayer four times a day.
