CELEBRATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE NEW DELEGATION SUPERIOR
Yesterday, commemorating the 206th anniversary of the birth of our Mother Foundress, St. Maria Rosa Molas and the 6th anniversary of the constitution of the Asia Delegation, the General Government met with the sisters of the Delegation online to read the decree of appointment of the new Superior of the Delegation, Carmen Villalon Letelier, who will be accompanied by Ana Maria Perea Arnaiz and Hyekyung Park Filomena as councilors.
In a simple and profound celebration, the General Government invited us to place ourselves in the presence of the Lord with the song Caring, praying, consoling. Then the presentation of the history we have lived so far under the guidance of God who shares his Vision with us so that we can make it our own and live it in depth invited us to welcome this "something new that is springing from God".
After a moment of sharing from the heart what we must let go off and let come so that the new can germinate in us, Antonia Munuera, Superior General, solemnly read the decree of appointment of the new Superior of the Delegation, as the moment required, asking for an open attitude of obedience. She then encouraged the new team of leaders of the Delegation to live as an authentic community of life for the mission. She encouraged them to go out and at the same time encouraged the sisters of the Delegation to go out like the first sisters, tireless, daring, always dedicated to the poorest and to continue to give the Delegation of Asia an ever more Asian face.
Finally the members of the new government of the Delegation have shared their feelings with all the sisters and in a fraternal atmosphere of celebration some sisters have encouraged the new team committing all of us to collaborate so that the Delegation continues to grow. Special gratitude to the General Government that always accompanies and encourages the Delegation in its steps and to Montse Trias who accompanied us in the celebration as English translator. Let us entrust the Delegation into the hands of God with the hope and certainty that the Mother Foundress and Our Lady of the Consolacion accompany us in every step.
