Here we are gathering the fruits of our labours saying like Samuel: » Speak Lord, your servant is listening.”

The facilitator gave us some information:
Tomorrow we will be free all day and in the evening the sisters of Posadas (Argentina) will present their community to the assembly and to the sisters of the community.

After a hymn we began sharing the work that we had done in our groups yesterday to discover the three priorities that seem to express most adequately the objective chosen for the next 5 years and which will be given to the new council for them to implement.

The sharing was good, realistic, and deep and there were many convergences. Lourdes Fernandez encouraged the sisters to chat together in twos on the spot and comment on what had been said up till now by the different groups. Priorities became apparent including“the priority of priorities”( which will be dealt with on the last day of the chapter). We had to cut the assembly short in order to go to Mass ( so many people come to our house for Mass!). When Mass was over we continued the work in linguistic groups deciding on priorities, (each group was to choose just one) thus formulating a proposal which included how this would be realised , who would assume responsibility for it, when it would be put into practice and the length of time to be foreseen for its experimentation before evaluating it.

We will come together again at 15:30. See you later!
