One Family, One Heart…

17 July 2024

We are indeed glad and grateful for these months’ intensive charismatic formation in Reus and Rome. It became a wonderful place for the encounter and deepening of the charism which enkindle our hearts with the missionary flame of love for Christ and his Gospel. It was a time of reflection, renewal and reuniting ourselves with the life of our Founders.

The entire formation was focussed on human development and personal vocation, which made a great impact in ourselves and moulded us as person of confidence, radical missionary life and love for the congregation and the sisters.

We started with the childhood of our Founders by connecting to our childhood: birth, parents and the impact of neighbours on our personal lives. The life and vocation of the Founders made us to appreciate our own vocation and the life we are called to live. They understood their call to mission to feel like apostles sent by the Spirit of the Lord to renew the Church and spread the Good News. In the same way, we too, have experienced that we are called to live the same charism.

Visiting the places of the founders enriched us and helped us to deepen our charismatic identity and belonging.

This time was an opportunity to renew ourselves, and to discover how we can contribute to the renewal of the community, the church and society.

We express our gratitude to God and to the Congregation for this wonderful experience; in a special way, remembering the accompaniment and prayerful support of the sisters during this time that made us feel one family and one heart.
