“Our Chapter was the cradle of our call to radical transformation”
...our evolving transformation will be visible through your witness to the change we wish to see in our congregation and in our world.
Let us honour our call to radical transformation through our individual and collective commitment to the implementation of the Chapter Direction Statement, so that it may bear abundant fruit in the life of the Congregation and in mission. May the spirit of St John Eudes and the words of St Mary Euphrasia speak to us now:
You have been entrusted with a sacred and precious jewel.
It is our Holy Work that you carry in your arms,
in your persons; show it to the world,
to all, in all its beauty.
We were founded through love.
We have all been attracted through love.
It is love that keeps us here.
(St Mary Euphrasia, Letter 836)
A true shepherd should be a burning and shining light,
burning inwardly and shining outwardly,
a light for others in action …
This light should be strong and bright,
and should come from a torch so fier
y and fiery that it cannot be extinguished.
(St John Eudes)
Grateful to the Congregational Leadership Team!
Their inaugural message will inspire our daily work in the Mission!
