The report from the Tempo Forte December 2017 is now available online.
Circular Letter Tempo Forte – 4-9 December 2017
Evangelization is in fact the grace and vocation proper to the Church, her deepest identity (Evangelii Nuntiandi, #14).
Our tempo forte was preceded by the annual gathering with the members of the Congregation who are studying in Rome (Sunday, 3 December). The time together began with a fraternal dialogue that provided us with the opportunity to introduce ourselves to one another. At 11:00 am, we celebrated the Eucharist for the First Sunday of Advent (and were mindful of Saint Francis Xavier, the patron of the missions). Our celebration concluded with a special meal, after which the 16 students returned to their respective residences.
