  • Missionary Sisters of Saint Charles Borromeo - Scalabrinians
    In this first volume of the history of the Missionary Sisters of Saint Charles – Scalabrinians that covers the period of 1895 – 1934, Sister Lice Maria Signor dedicates herself patiently in giving an attractive and documented form, the historical path of the MSCS Congregation and does it under diverse aspects: social, economic, political, cultural, ecclesial and religious. It is evidenced her determination in looking at the elements to construct our history and to show how the existence of the MSCS Sisters Congregation, is a historic/missionary path of evangelic service to the migrants, that become the incarnation of the words of Jesus Christ: “I was a stranger and you welcomed me” (Mt. 25,35). “Seeds emigrate on the wings of the wind, plants emigrate from continent to continent, carried by the water currents, birds and animals emigrate, but more than all, man emigrates, now in a collective form, now in an isolated form but always an instrument of that Providence that presides over the destiny of humans and guides them, also by catastrophes, for the final goal, that of perfectioning man over the land and the glory of God in the heavens” (Scalabrini).

  • Blessed Assunta Marchetti: Some Traits of Her Spirituality Sr
    TRADITIO SCALABRINIANA Sussidi per l'approfondimento, n. 27 (Special Edition) June 2018 Deepening Blessed Assunta Marchetti: Some traits of her spirituality Sr. Leocadia Mezzomo, mscs English translation of the original text in Portuguese published in: Traditio Scalabriniana. Sussidi per l’approfondimento n. 24 (November 2016) What we mean by spirituality? Spirituality is a path through which we seek God, so that He can shape our life in agreement with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. What really matters is being led by the Spirit, beyond the sentimental illusions or the relish for emotions, particularly today when we tend to prefer and exalt the subjective individualism! The experience of God according to the Gospel does not reduce spirituality to a complicated theorem, but we cannot even mean it as a recipe ready to be used. God's experience becomes in the person a kind of "sap" which strengthens and yields fruit, similar to what happens to a tree planted on the edge of a stream (cf. Sal 1:1). A few authors define spirituality as "thirst for absolute, thirst for God": this gives the idea that spirituality is an explicit relation with God. Others prefer to say that "spirituality is a way to be Christians". Therefore, we could say that: if people and society allowed to be driven by God's blow, we would have a spiritualized society, and if the Lord's Spirit governed people, we would have human dignity in a high degree1. Spirituality is a road open to adventure and love, in which God is the protagonist and the person is a free and aware subject, called to cooperate with the abundant grace that He "pours in the heart" (Rm 5:5) with the profitable action of His Spirit.

Handbook 7 Objectives: • Who was Giovanni Battista Scalabrini? • How has Scalabrini become interested in migration? • What are the main points of his teaching? • What were Scalabrini’s main initiatives regarding migration? 3.
