E-voc-ando 2025

21 July 2025

“That I may know You, Lord, that I may know myself, and also come to know all that You want me to do…” (M. A. París)

“That I may know You and make You known.” (P. Claret)

In this Jubilee Year, as pilgrims of hope, the spiritual journey E-voc-ando 2025 began on Sunday, July 20th, at the house in Reus, Spain.

It is a time of grace from the Lord, with the participation of 18 sisters from the four continents where we are present.

The richness of the group is expressed in the diversity of ages, stages of formation, and missionary experiences in various contexts. This plurality allows for a deeper perspective on reality, enriches community life, and nurtures shared discernment.

The central proposal of this spiritual journey “for Claretian women” is to evoke: the vocational story, the way we live out our service, and our missionary availability. It is about “passing vocation through the heart, holding it in our hands, becoming more aware of it”. All of this is lived in the light of the experience of our Founders, María Antonia París and St. Anthony Mary Claret, rooted in our charism, so that we may continue to learn and shed light on life and mission, thus deepening the personalization of the charism.

We look forward to intense days of prayer, reflection, and deepening of various themes, systematic accompaniment, and visits to key places where our Founders lived.

The sisters of the General Government – Priscilla, Amilbia, and Thushari – are accompanying the entire E-voc-ando process, offering overall coordination in service of each participant.

To the sisters and to all those who walk with us, we ask that you accompany us with your prayer.

During these days, the text “María Antonia París, friend and companion in the journey” is being distributed.
