Province of América Central
All began a year ago when we were invited by Rome to reflect on what the slogan “New Marists on mission” might mean and imply for the Marist future.
We quickly received a document inviting us to ingest its contents and which, in short, touched on the essence of being Marist today: a deep spirituality, a tent open to new members: the lay Marists, a new mission field to discover.
In view of these signposts on the way, we began the journey with the preparation for the Second International Marist Assembly in each of our fraternities with reflection about the proposed themes and culminating in the International Meeting of September in Nairobi.
We were able to assimilate and make our own the conclusions and fruits of this international meeting at the Tenth Provincial Meeting of Fraternities of the Champagnat Movement of the Marist Family held in the capital of Guatemala on 7, 8 and 9 November.
Around 180 members from most of the fraternities of the province attended, with the desire of opening new routes in MARIST SPIRITUALITY, in the COMMUNION between Brothers and lay Marists and in the MISSION in new lands.
