  • European Justice and Peace Commissions Unite in Solidarity for Care of Creation
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE September 26, 2017 Media contact: GCC: Cecilia Dall'Oglio, [email protected], +393331271680 JPEuropa: Stefan Lunte, stefan.lunte@comece, +33680179422 European Justice and Peace Commissions Unite in solidarity for Care of Creation The Conference of European Justice and Peace Commissions is promoting care for Creation as part of its international workshop and general assembly meeting. The Conference of European Justice and Peace Commissions is a network of 31 national Justice and Peace Commissions, which are mandated by their bishops' conferences. The gathering, which is themed “On Spiritual Roots and Political Fruits,” is a pilgrimage for justice and peace and care of Creation, 22-25 September. It took place at the Taizé monastic community. Cardinal Peter Turkson, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Promotion of Integral Human Development, attended the first two days of the gathering, and Rev. Claire Sixte-Gateuille, National Secretary for International relations of The United Protestant Church in France and delegate of CEC adressed the audience as well. Cecilia Dall’Oglio, Italian Justice and Peace Commission and GCCM European Manger, introduced the symbolic action for Season of Creation and delegates of National commissions of Justice and Peace, the attending bishops and the brothers of Taizé physically enacted their commitment to care for Creation. All removed their shoes, standing barefoot on Earth to demonstrate radical renewal of a connection with Creation. Participants then placed soil taken from wounded sites in their countries into a container, symbolizing unity in the face of common social and environmental devastation. Each contribution of soil was meaningful. For example, the German Commission brought soil from the UN Climate Secretariat in Bonn as a sign of encouragement to the UN climate negotiators.

  • January 2020
    INM FMA / Pro. Cir. 31 January 2020 Viva Gesu`! “As for Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart”. - (Lk.2:19) My Dearest Sisters, Wish you a very happy and grace-filled New Year 2020! On the very first day of the year, the Church celebrates the solemnity of Mary Mother of God, a title given to the Virgin Mary during the Council of Ephesus in 431, entrusting the entire year to the motherly care of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Pope Francis says that the love of the mothers is the foundation of humanity and the cure for a world often divided and filled with bitterness. He praises mothers for the “heroism” they show in self-giving, strength in compassion, wisdom in meekness and for the loving accompaniment of their children. A world that looks to the future without a mother’s gaze is shortsighted. It may well increase its profits but it will no longer see others as brothers and sisters. He is indeed amazed by the Mother of God who was deeply united with her son Jesus and journeyed with Him throughout His life on earth and beyond with her admirable motherly qualities. He recommends us to ask Mary for “the grace to be amazed at the God of surprises” as 2020 gets started. May she bless the path of every man and woman in this year that is just beginning. It will be good precisely in the measure in which each person welcomes God’s goodness which Jesus came to bring into the world.

  • Provincial Circular 01 January 2019
    PROVINCIAL CIRCULAR 01 JANUARY 2019 DEAR CONFRERES, Greetings and Prayerful Wishes at the dawn of this New Year 2019. “The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you. The Lord turn his face to you and give you peace (Num 6: 24 – 26).” At the outset I wish you all a prosperous and peaceful new year 2019. I extend my prayers and blessings that the Good Lord may continue to bless all of us, lead us and make us ready to surrender to His will throughout this year. Stepping into another year, should call us to introspect our past, take stock of our present and march ahead with a new hope of growing closer to HIM, the source of our true joy and peace. On the first day of the year we celebrate our Blessed Mother as the ‘Mother of God.’ She becomes our Mother who is tender and lowly, poor in material goods and rich in love, free of sin and united to Jesus, surrendered her entire self to God and pondered everything in Silence. As her children, we look at her on the first day of the year to begin anew and to march ahead with her motherly protection. On 24 January we keep the feast of St. Francis De Sales who inspired St. John Bosco with his meekness and from whom we derive the name ‘Salesians.’ Let us pray to the patron of our congregation that we may imitate him in his extraordinary meekness and in winning the souls of the young.

  • Mamma Mary: 8Th September Our Lady’S Birthday Brings Us “The Hope of the Entire World and the Dawn of Salvation”
    Provincial Office, Auxilium, P.B. 19877, Bandra, Mumbai 400 050 INB/ VII/26 /17 September 2017 INB/VII/24/17 Greetings from the Provincialate! Happy Birthday ––– Mamma Mary: 8th September Our Lady’s birthday brings us “the hope of the entire world and the dawn of Salvation”. Let us celebrate with joy the birth of the Virgin Mary, of who was born the Sun of Justice….” “Her birth constitutes the hope and the light of Salvation for the whole world. The Feast of the Birth of Mary is an occasion for praise and thanksgiving in honour of the personal sanctity and vocation of the Blessed Virgin Mary as the Mother of the Lord Jesus. Mary is the symbol of hope and expectation of God’s faithful people and at the same time she is the beginning of a new hope, the beginning of the dawn of that newness which her Son would bring for all creation. With Mary’s birth, sorrow and darkness are extinguished. Each of us comes here with our hopes and aspirations, with our problems, concerns and anxieties which trouble our hearts. As we begin our pilgrimage, let us allow Mary to change our hearts, and ask Mary for the gift of that freedom & willingness to accept the word of the Angel in our daily life. Even today, if we have Mary, we have Jesus. Whoever is very devoted to her is very close to the heart of Jesus. We can make Mary's birthday special by whispering a Hail Mary often throughout the day. Girl Child Day; The Church in India dedicates the 8 th of September to the Girl Child.
