| Summary: | The purpose of this study is to explore how religious sisters experience meaning in their service work for children with disabilities. This study used the photovoice technique where data is collected through interviews based on photos. 10 religious sisters participated in this study. Analysis of data from the interview results obtained four main themes: (1) perception of self and services, (2) dynamics of service, (3) spirituality in ministry, and (4) challenges in ministry. Meaning in service work for children with disabilities is defined by spiritual and interpersonal interactions, highlighting the importance of both aspects in religious sisters’ mission as service workers. |
