Santa Fe de Bogotá (Colombia), 06/08/2016, Sr. Rosalba Villamil.- Vocation is what explains, in its deph, the mystery of human life, the mystery of preaching and absolute gratitude. Let us relook at one of the urgencies of the 54th General Chapter which tells us: We must “commit ourselves to Vocation Ministry with responsibility and creativity as a mission of the local community as a whole.” In the agreements taken at the meeting of the contact persons in each community on July 2015 in Petaluma we agreed to: Establish a clear and concrete agenda about the number and dates for the meetings for vocations to strengthen the work and commitment of each local community.
Equally, it was agreed to send a letter to the superiors and directors of the schools so that vocational ministry could be given greater importance in the schools. The visits to the schools began, beginning with the school in Girardot. There, we worked with the grades from eight to eleven. The work was presented together with Sr. María Jacoba Cubillos on April 28 and 29.
In Fusagasugá, Sr. Rosalba Villamil, worked with grades 7 to 11 and Sr. Evangelina Camero, worked with the girls in 5th primary on May 5 and 6. Srs. María Odilia Gil, Eutimia Cristancho and Rosalba Villamil, participated in an expo-Charism in the Institute of San Juan de Dios on May 20, beginning with the celebration of the Eucharist with the theme of vocations.
