It was a great joy for me that slowly but with assurance we are moving forward in the response to our vocation. Things planned are being slowly implemented.
Before having our meeting this 12th September, some members came a day before for a discussion about a project. In the evening of Friday 11, we were gathered to meditate upon the Sorrowful Mysteries of our Lord Jesus. After this prayer, we read two letters from the Writings of Comboni, one written to Fr Nicola Mazza on the 4th Sep. 1857 and the second one written on the 20th Sep. 1857 from Egypt to Dr Benedetto Patuzzi (WC 19, 20-26). The main purpose is the knowledge of our Founder. After this, we took some time to reflect a little bit about how we are moving. This time of Community Prayer is to strengthen all the local groups which are formed by members in the same area. Before starting our monthly meeting this 12th September, we prayed the Lauds. For our meeting, we had first a mass presided by Rev. Fr Joseph Rabbiosi. At the meeting, we emphasized on the roles that the local groups have to play: the necessity to come together and pray, involvement in JPIC, the formation and preparation of some youth, the proclamation of the Good News in some villages and the mission promotion.
We planned for the coming meeting which falls on the 10th October to present the History of CLM.
