Roma (Italy), 02/10/2019, Sr. Diana Gisela Dolorita.- The seminar on Engaging our diversity through interculturality was held in Rome from 21st January to 1st February, organized by the Union of International Superior Generals (UISG); a wonderful image of the richness of the female religious. Diana Gisela Dolorita (General Goverment), A. Jenet (India), Patricia Yameogo (Africa) and Luz Karime Laguado Mancipe (Colombia) participated from our Congregation.
We were 180 participants from 46 congregations from 5 continents; 23% from Africa, 23% from Asia, 21% from Europe, 20% from South America, 10% from United States and 3% from Oceania. The objective of this seminar was to help religious congregations reflect about intercultural living, to build a new culture where all the cultures are respected, accepted and lived. Understood and lived well in the light of faith makes us prophetic signs in our communities, in the Congregation and can guide us in our mission. To achieve interculturality, we must first know our own culture while taking an interest in the other.
Diversity is a blessing which brings life and creativity in the community as well as in the mission.
