Annunciate

T

o conclude the Year dedicated to Consecrated Life, the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life has published the fourth Letter: Proclaim.
It concludes the series of Letters – Rejoice, Behold, Contemplate and Proclaim – addressed to consecrated persons.
The Letter Proclaim exhorts us to keep alive the call of Pope Francis to wake up the world and to be “heralds of the joy of the Gospel”.  


To reflect:
“Do our ministries, works, presences respond to what the Spirit asked of our Founders? Are they adequate to pursue their purposes in today’s society and Church? Is there something we need to change? Do we have the same passion for our people, are we close to them to the point of sharing their joys and sorrows, so as to truly understand their needs and be able to offer our contribution to respond to them?” (Proclaim 93)
