?There is life? and it convokes us!?
Under the motto “there is life… and it convokes us!” the Mission Assembly of the Province Cruz del Sur, was carried out in Lujan, on the 1, 2 and 3 of August. The participants in this Encounter were Brothers, Laity and teachers from Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay.
On this occasion, we worked on the lineament of the Province Cruz del Sur in view of the next three years. The intense activity allowed us to recognize the concerns of the teachers and of the animators in tune with the changes, which education and society in general, are going through. Among several themes, was stressed the need to deepen on the work of inclusion in the works as well as the importance of the link or bond between these and the Province.
Having as objective to celebrate the life of the Province and to remember what has been cultivated, the days were full with many activities that deepened the growth as a body and the sense of belonging, with the center placed on the calls of the XXII General Chapter and the journey toward the New La Valla.
In order to motivate the reflection, there was the presentation of the co-participation of the Province Cruz del Sur in two important projects at international level: Program SYRIA and the Board BICE Argentina. There was also time for the presentation of the community Lavalla200> of the Region South America, in Tabatinga, Brazil.
The activity gave special attention to generate new dynamics of integration, to revise our lived experience of “Being a Marist Today”, and to observe and read the context in which we find ourselves immersed at present and analyze which are the “consequences” of being a Marist at the present time.
The work carried out culminated with an integral analysis and conclusion on which should be the direction of the Mission in the next years. In this way, it was possible to attain the representation of the three countries, which form the Marist Province Cruz del Sur, in the objectives proposed for the next three years.
