The students were to draw how they would accept special people and enable them
to become aware of the many other gifts God has bestowed on them. By utilizing
all those abilities, they would be able to live a happy and successful
life.

Noviembre 2015 es un mes histórico para tomar acción contra
el cambio climático. El 30 de Noviembre, los líderes mundiales se reunirán para
inaugurar la Cumbre Mundial por el Clima (llamada COP 21) y firmar un tratado
para hacer frente a la crisis climática.
A lo largo de Noviembre, rezaremos y nos movilizaremos como
nunca antes, para poner en práctica el mensaje del papa Francisco en Laudato Sii.
Para empezar, los obispos del mundo han lazado el “Llamado a
las Partes Negociadoras de la COP21” y nuestro movimiento ha respondido con
esta “Llamada al Mes de la Acción por el Clima”.

On Saturday, October 24, 8 members of the group met in
a phone conference. At this session, based on our enthusiastic
reading of “Laudato Si,” we shared on three points: one new insight, one challenge, and suggestions for concrete application. We were aware of not wanting to “reinvent the
wheel” and of the many Church/congregational documents, celebrations and
resources already calling for province attention. We then reflected on the booklet, The Journey Makes Us One, which some
communities have begun to use and find helpful.So we decided to focus on it as we “enlarge the conversation” to include
everyone in the province.
We INVITE
EACH AND ALL to take up The Journey Makes
Us Oneand let it be a guide on
the journey as we respond to Pope Francis call to make “genuine
care for our own lives and our
relationships with nature inseparable
from fraternity, justice and faithfulness to others”. [#70].
By exploring our Chapter priorities in this
way together, we can encounter anew the divine mercy of Jesus, the tenderness of Mary,
the compassion of Claudine, and our union with every
creature in the cosmos.
Note: The booklet "The Journey Makes Us One" - is a collection of prayers and reflections - prepared by the Region of America to deepen the three priorities.
