The International session for Information/Communications service (from Monday 21 to Thursday 31) for the Family began this morning here in the Generalate. There are 24 participants from 18 Units and the Vicariate. It is a joy to have also the presence of Anne-Marie Sibille, one of our Lay Associates among the group.
In an environment of Life and Joy, the participants expressed to one another, their expectations for the session, followed by a meaningful Opening Prayer. Ana Maria welcomed the participants and opened the session with her inspiring words.
As we went on we had Sister Bernadette, a Pauline sister, who gave some input reflections on the importance of iconic communication and doing mission online, using different digital media.
We also had Marco Grottesi, who spoke of cyber security and how to get away from all the dangers that we are exposed to when we use internet for our service.
For the last three days (from Monday 28 to Wednesday 30) Patricia Morgante is facilitating us, giving us some useful guidelines to name what we dream as a whole, for the whole, for mission and how to plan our journey forward in realizing our dreams - through information and communication service.
