In November 2024, our sisters in Bolivia took part in the closing ceremonies of the jubilee year celebrating the centenary of the foundation of the diocese of Potosi (situated in the centre of the country). These events were the highlight of the year: two weeks of pastoral mission, from 6 to 20 October.
Sr Reina recounts: « In this stage, visits will be made to the homes, to know their needs and accompany them in a moment of prayer, liturgical celebrations, meetings to reflect on the word of God, bless families, with an attitude of openness to welcome the missionaries who will visit the places of study, work, family life and participate in the mission with joy and optimism. As a result of this mission, we want all families to be renewed and committed to their faith in Jesus Christ. » During the year, the Diocese was reflecting on the themes of communion, conversion, service and mission.
The closing mass was something very beautiful in which the participation of the entire Potosina church was seen. It began with a procession of the people and the schools. Where they passed, they received the Lord of Manquiri with flowers and balloons… before the Eucharist. « Let us continue being a missionary Church as we have been during this time ! » concludes Sr Reina.
