On the second day, Angelo Ricordi, researcher, and expert in the area of Identity, Mission, and Vocation of the Province of Brazil Centro-Sul, will present some extracts of selected texts from the manuscripts of Marcellin Champagnat, based on the theological and ecclesial context of France.

The first workshop of the year took place in April and its theme was Education for Interiority.

PHEM Workshops

For more than 10 years, the PHEM Workshops have been a space for discussion and deepening of unpublished topics or thematic sections of the Marist Historical and Spiritual Patrimony. They broaden the understanding of the development of the Marist charism, spirituality, and mission in history, and inspire the current practices of our institution. The workshops are part of the short courses “Memorial Marista” offers.
