ASIA/CHINA - Formation course for religious women in the diocese of Hai Men: from community life to evangelisation

Wednesday, 13 February 2008

Hai Men (Agenzia Fides) - Community life, evangelisation, the liturgy, missions, personal formation, and the work of religious life: these are the main themes of the Course in religious formation being sponsored by the sisters of St. Therese of the Child Jesus, in the diocese of Hai Men, in the province of Juang Su. According to Sr. Song Yu Ping, Superior General of the Order, “the course has served for allowing us to study, share, exchange personal impressions, and to take up the work of evangelisation with renewed trust and enthusiasm, towards a new mission. We were 14 religious: some of us do pastoral work in parishes and others were from other diocesan congregations like Han Dan (“Consolation of the Holy Spirit”) and Ning Bo (“Virgen of Purgatory”). We came together to gain strength for evangelisation and reinforcement in the faith. We have also been able to work more closely with the priests, with the goal of improving our collaboration efforts in pastoral work, in promotion of the mission of our diocese, Hai Men.” (NZ) (Agenzia Fides 13/2/2008; righe 13, parole 173)
