“We beseech the Holy Trinity to grant them continuous blessings and assist them for a fruitful service of animation of consecrated missionary religious life of the Institute, so that in the Church we may be a sign of God’s love and a testimony of hope and prophecy of the Kingdom”, explain the Sisters of the Chapter. “May the words of the prophet Micah ‘Walk humbly with your God’, which guide this Chapter, may inspire Sister Neusa to serve and grow, with hope, the horizon of the Congregational mission, in evangelical and missionary service to migrants and refugees”, she added.

“I thank the Sisters who participated in the Chapter and all those who, in the different places of the world where we operate, who have been close to us with prayer” explained Sister Neusa de Fatima Mariano. “In the previous six years, we have embarked on a profound path of reorganization, able to keep up with the times, with an increasingly globalized world and with deep and diverse migration needs and emergencies. The four verbs of Pope Francis, welcoming, protecting, promoting and integrating, are for us the cardinal points of a journey in support of migrants and refugees, for their protection and their inclusion. Over the next six years there will be great challenges to face, bearing in mind that just as in our hearts are the words and teachings of Jesus Christ that illuminate the world of hope and joy. We have done it and we will always do so, with the examples of Christian life of Saint Charles Borromeo, of our founder Blessed John Baptist Scalabrini, and of our co-founders Blessed Mother Assunta Marchetti and Venerable Father Joseph Marchetti “.
