What's Next?

When we met by province yesterday Alice, Maureen and I discussed how we will take the spirit and message of the second Maist International Mission Assembly back home.  Our hope is that at least one of us will share the message in person with each entity in the province during the upcoming year.  We also intend to meet with the provincial council to share our thoughts and listen to their suggestions.  And we hope to schedule a conference call with the school liaisons to discuss how to integrate the message into the activities of the upcoming Montagne year.  

What is the message that we will share?  While the formal message is still bring refined and translated we intend to convey the heart of what is new (or not so new):  our call to deepen our spirituality (to be mystics), our call to minister at the peripheries (to be prophets) and our common mission as Champagnat Marists (to be in communion).

Lastly, this blog will continue as a way for each of us to share our stories as we grow together.  Look for details in the near future.

Below is a quote to ponder as we continue to advance the Marist mission:
