On the anniversary of the death of María Angustias Giménez Vera, co-founder of the Hospitaller Sisters, we share a testimony that invites us to rediscover the richness of her spiritual and human legacy.
Through this reflection, we highlight María Angustias’ profound union with Jesus, the source of a life completely dedicated to serving the most vulnerable. Her trust in God, her ability to welcome and accompany others, and her commitment to the Hospitaller mission continue to be an inspiration for all who belong to the Congregation.
Her witness reminds us that Hospitality is born from an encounter with Christ and becomes a reality through everyday care, closeness, and generous service to others. It is a spirituality that unites mind, heart, and action, and continues to encourage the Hospitaller Sisters to respond faithfully to the challenges of our time.
Today, María Angustias’ legacy remains alive in every community, in every gesture of welcome, and in every person who makes Hospitality a way of living the Gospel. Her example continues to invite us to look beyond, to keep hope alive, and to renew our commitment to the mission we share.
On this anniversary, we give thanks for her life and for the mark she left on the Congregation, inspiring us to continue building a Hospitality that is open, welcoming, and deeply rooted in the Gospel.
