Fired by an ardent desire to help our young women live the Pauline vocation to the full, 32 Daughters of St. Paul from 19 countries gathered in Rome in a spirit of joyful internationality to participate in an International Seminar for pre-postulant, postulant and novice mistresses.
The Seminar, which is being held in response to a request of our 9th General Chapter and which will last from 10 October-10 December 2010, centers on a more profound reflection on the formation itinerary proposed by Fr. Alberione in the text Donec Formetur so as to give our formation programs the unique Pauline features that will ensure the future of the Congregation and help its members live our charism more fully in the Church and world today.
Special attention will be given to interpreting the contemporary situation from the socio-ecclesial and communications aspects. Let us remember the participants in our prayers, asking the Divine Maser to give them the light and discernment they need to form our younger generations to a style of life that reflects and proclaims Jesus Master Way, Truth and Life in society and in the world.
