La Delegación de Asia tiene su delegada y sus suplentes al Capítulo General
(ES) 28 de mayo. Comenzamos nuestro boletín con inmensa gratitud a Dios por todo lo vivido a lo largo de este día. Hoy fue un día especial, se decidió hacer las votaciones para la delegada y suplentes al Capítulo general. Providencialmente nos acompañaba la solemnidad de Pentecostés en nuestros discernimientos pidiendo la luz del Espíritu y recibiendo sus dones. La primera mitad de la mañana la dedicamos a una oración contemplativa con el Santísimo en silencio antes de las votaciones.
La tarde fue de expansión y paseo a un parque llamado ‘Picnic Grove’ cerca del centro de espiritualidad donde nos encontramos. Teníamos un poco de temor por la lluvia y el viento ya que en Filipinas está pasando tifón, pero gracias a Dios hemos recibido el regalo un día cálido y precioso que nos hizo disfrutar de los regalos de la naturaleza y compartir fraterno.
Compartimos con ustedes el fruto de nuestro discernimiento:
Delegada al capítulo general: Filomena, Park Hyekoung
Suplentes: 1. Anna, Kim Eunyeong
2. Clara, Shin Bokrye
Gracias hermanas por sus oraciones.
(EN) May 28. We begin our newsletter with immense gratitude to God for everything we have experienced throughout this day. Today was a special day, it was decided to vote for the delegate and substitutes to the General Chapter. Providentially, the solemnity of Pentecost accompanied us in our discernments asking for the light of the Spirit and receiving His gifts. We dedicated the first half of the morning to a contemplative prayer with the Blessed Sacrament in silence before voting.
The afternoon was decided for expansion and a walk to a park called 'Picnic Grove' near the spirituality center where we are gathered. We were a little afraid of the rain and the wind since a typhoon is happening in the Philippines, but thank God we have received the gift of a warm and precious day that made us enjoy the gifts of nature and share fraternity.
We share with you the fruit of our discernment:
Delegate to the General Chapter: Filomena, Park Hyekoung
Substitutes: 1. Anna, Kim Eunyeong
2. Clara, Shin Bokrye
Thank you sisters for your prayers.
Opening of the Chapter of the Delegation of Asia
After the fraternal moment with the community of Quezon city and being the whole group of Delegates for the Chapter complete we officially opened the chapter on may 22. We read the regulations, and listened to the opening words of Sr. Josefa: "The Spirit is the protagonist, may his strength accompany us, in communion... For me, it is a joy to return to the Delegation and find myself at home. And find a Delegation so grown, not only in number but in human quality and a religious sense. The Spirit gives us that wisdom that goes beyond science, to work generously with true freedom and humble creativity. That is why I ask you to speak clearly and listen with humility."
Thank you, sisters, for your prayers and greetings that are reaching us these days, united in prayer to each one of you.
On May 23, we will have the Holy Spirit Mass. You can find and watch it at this address:Consolation Delegation of Asia - YouTube
