Brasilia (Fides Service) - The office of the Pontifical Mission
Societies in Brazil hosted the members of the executive commission
of the National Missionary Council COMINA who in two days of work
28 and 29 March, discussed certain issues of particular importance
with regard to the First National Missionary Congress. The Congress
will be held in Belo Horizonte (Brazil) 17-20 June, with the motto:
"Church in Brazil your life is mission". The Congress,
as the members of the executive commission pointed out, will be
a moment of encounter, reflection, testimony, proposals and suggestions
from those responsible for various bodies involved in the missionary
field. The objective is to prepare the contribution of the Church
in Brazil to the American Missionary Congress CAM 2, which will
be celebrated at Guatemala City in November this year. The National
Missionary Congress in Belo Horizonte aims to outline Brazil's
missionary project and it will offer an opportunity for reflection
and preparation for CAM through the study of issues proposed in
the working paper. Moreover it aims to create a space of testimony
to give rise to concrete response of missionary vocations; encourage
greater articulation between the country's missionary bodies and
forces; plan the celebration of Brazil's missionary progress (conquests,
agents, horizons of commitment, projects
