“It is time of Missio Ad Gentes”
Indeed, it is time to rekindle “Missio ad Gentes”
among the missionaries of Cambodia-Myanmar Province. This rekindling the flame
of missionary spirit is made possible by Sr. Alaide Deretti, General Councilor
for the Missions, who made herself available to give an online conference to
the Sisters as they prepare for the celebration of the World Mission Sunday on
October 18.
All the missionaries are gathered at the Provincial
House while the Animators and Equipe Coordinators of Myanmar joined the
conference online. After Sr. Alaide’s inspiring talk, the Sisters are given the
opportunity to share their resonances of her conference.
It is a timely encounter, a very encouraging one that
reminded the Sisters once more that we are all “called to be
missionary-disciples in the daily bringing the joy of the Gospel and witnessing
with passion and trust God’s tenderness to all the people.” Each one returned
to her community with a renewed commitment to be generous in saying: “Here I
am, send me!”
