XVIII PASTORAL ASSEMBLY
06-08 December 2021
Sasaima, Cundinamarca
Rooted in Christ and audacious in mission, 87 of us: religious and lay Claretians gathered for the XVIII pastoral assembly, from 6 to 8 December 2021 in Sasaima Colombia. The greenness of the mountains, as well as the wild countryside’s smell became the natural setting that God offered us as a gift for our fraternal encounter.
We established our way from the appreciative inquiry method, making conversations in each of the structures, areas and local communities, which allowed us to value missionary work. Our days were illumined through the phase of discovering, dreaming, designing and self-commitment. The path traveled, achievements, challenges and suggestions were reviewed in groups, based on areas and structures, that engenders building together the dreams that represent our commitment to be Christians, committed to building the Kingdom in the style of Saint Anthony Mary Claret.
