After running a book center located in their Durban residence for 13 years, our sisters recently opened a new book center in the heart of the city, giving them the chance to expand and improve the organization of their apostolic activities. They are now able to present a wider range of books to the public, provide guided tours for Catholic school children (including those preparing to make their First Communions and Confirmations), hold cultural meetings and encounters for pastoral workers, and guide courses in biblical and catechetical formation.
The FSPs took advantage of the inauguration ceremony to present the Pauline charism and the figure of Fr. James Alberione to those in attendance and they say it was heartwarming to see how enthusiastically everyone–priests, religious, families and youth from many different parishes–participated in the event.
Our sisters sincerely thank God for enabling them to carry out the Pauline mission with always greater professionality and say that the FSP presence in Africa is becoming always more meaningful to the people, thanks be to God!
