Following the indication of the XIV General Chapter to grow in the spirit of family and in the quality of our fraternal communication, the General Council invites the Consolata missionaries and all communities to a year of reflection on Community Life, from March 2, 2026 to March 2, 2027.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Guided by the Constitutions, this special time \u201cdesires to be for the entire Institute an opportunity for spiritual renewal and for deepening the gift that defines us: being one single family for the same mission,\u201d explains the General Council in the letter announcing the event, which takes place within the centenary of the birth into heaven of Saint Joseph Allamano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet us welcome this invitation with docile and willing hearts, aware that communion is not merely an ideal, but a responsibility that roots us in the charism we have received and makes us credible in missionary service.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
