September has been a busy month for the communities of the Angelic Sisters, marked by meetings, celebrations and acts of service that strengthen their commitment to mission and accompaniment.
Within the diocesan vocational pastoral team, a new edition of PROVOCA was held on 13 September., a space dedicated to promoting vocations and accompanying young people on their journey of faith. Sister Lorena, together with other members of the team, visited the community of La Angostura, where they discussed vocations, opened a space for dialogue, and concluded with a moment of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament.
From 12 to 14 September, the Second Shared Mission Meeting was held at the Casa de Espiritualidad in Zaragoza, under the slogan ‘Walking together in a charismatic project: being a comfort in loneliness’.. Sisters, former students, friends and collaborators participated in this gathering, hosted by Mother General Enedina Fernández Bueno. Belén Blanco, a lay member of the Shared Mission team of CONFER Nacional, was present and offered formation, activities and opportunities for reflection. Attendees enjoyed moments of community prayer, fellowship, and culture, highlighting the visit to the Aljafería, the celebration of the Eucharist in the Basilica del Pilar, and a fraternal meal with the community of Zaragoza.
Meanwhile, at the house in Mexico City On 15 September, the national holiday was celebrated with a day of fellowship and joy. The main event included the traditional cry of independence, proclaimed by a resident, followed by an afternoon of socialising, music and dancing. The celebration reinforced the commitment to live openly to the needs of others.
In addition, between 17 and 20 September, the Evangelising Mission conference was held in Valladolid. which culminated in the transfer of the titular image to the Convent of the Sisters of the Cross. The community was especially grateful for the visit of the Penitential Brotherhood of Our Lady of Sorrows, which presented its mission and offered a string concert at the residence. During the transfer, the procession stopped at the door of the Angélicas house, where residents, family members and workers made an offering and prayed to the Virgin. On 22 September, the Zaragoza residence inaugurated its traditional charity market. intended to support missions in America, Venezuela, and Colombia. Sisters and residents launched this initiative in an atmosphere of gratitude and hope, which serves as a bridge of solidarity and a living testimony of commitment to a world fairer. In this context, special mention was made of street children and young people who long for education and opportunities.
In short, it has been a month full of activities in which, through meetings, celebrations and simple gestures, we have continued to sow life, faith and mission.
