Del 27 al 31 de octubre se celebró en Roma el Encuentro General de Pastoral Juvenil y Vocacional de las Hermanas Hospitalarias. Bajo el lema “Con Jesús a los jóvenes, avivando la llama de la Hospitalidad”, participaron 20 hermanas de distintas partes del mundo para escuchar, discernir y fortalecer juntas su misión con la juventud.
Fueron días de oración, reflexión y trabajo compartido, guiadas por el deseo de hacer arder el fuego del carisma hospitalario en el corazón de los jóvenes.
Now that the meeting has concluded, we return to our communities grateful for the gift of the vocation entrusted to us, and sent forth to bear witness before young people to the joy of following Jesus.
We carry with us good news: God continues to call!
We also bring a renewed commitment: to listen to young people, to learn from them, and to invite them to take part in the mission—especially where suffering and poverty most need the presence of Hospitality.
Among the challenges we embrace are promoting a vocational culture that helps to discover the different ways God calls, and accompanying young people in caring for their mental health, so that they may grow integrally in faith, hope, and service.
