Monday, October 13, 2008  

After a  lovely free Sunday, we are renewed and ready for another week of work. Even our liturgy team has returned refreshed  after their days of rest. 

In her morning greeting, Sr. Sue, Superior General, congratulated our Indian sisters, for their first canonized saint, Sr. Alfonsa of the Immaculate Conception (Anna Muttathupadathu, of the Franciscan Clarists Congregation). The ceremony took place yesterday, under the sunny skies at St. Peter’s. 

Among the announcements, Sr. Rosanna Marin tells  us she is going to give us the web address : www.vidimusdominum.info so that we may get to know the site. 

The editing team: Srs. Mary Motte, Teresa Cachot and Anne-Marie Saget, presents us with a compilation of the work done so far in Chapter to help us in this next phase called  “A gathering of ideas”, they insist that this is not a draft of the Chapter document to come, but an instrument for our work.

The sisters are invited to do some personal reflection this morning and in groups this afternoon. They need to make sure that the report is accurate and complete. In Assembly their comments and reactions are welcome, and perhaps a light will appear to facilitate a consensus about the Spiritual Reference of the Chapter. 

The sharings of today are carried in our hearts during the Eucharist.

new nurse to replace Sr. Malgorzata
