On 30 June, the day on which the Pauline Family celebrates the Feast of St. Paul, the Apostoline Sisters began their Interchapter Meeting–a time during which they are examining and evaluating the journey the Institute has made in the three years since its 4th General Chapter. The General Government and the other participants, who are gathered at the Institute’s Motherhouse in Castel Gandolfo, anticipate that their work will conclude on 7 July.
Sr. Marina Beretti, Superior General of the Apostolines, writes: “We ask the other members of the Pauline Family to accompany our work with their prayers so that we can look to the past with gratitude and to the future with unshakable hope. In particular, we ask our sick and elderly brothers and sisters to pray for us, in the knowledge that they willingly present the Lord with all the needs of the Pauline Family. May our work help us renew our self-offering and may the choices we make transform every aspect of our lives into a vocational apostolate, in keeping with the desire of Fr. Alberione.”
