In the afternoon they all listened to the recorded video on \u201cSpiritual Leadership\u201d by Bro. Phillip Pinto, CFC. The following day, Sr Tess Figueroa, PLT link for formation, facilitated the session on Deeptime, which focused on our being interconnected, interrelated and interdependent. This speaks so much to the sisters\u2019 life in community. Aside from listening to the input on Universe Story and Cosmic Spirituality, time was given for communing with nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Updates from various Province Teams: Vocation and Formation, Joint Formation, Integral Ecology, Stewardship, Restructuring and Leadership and Governance were given on the third day by the member of the Province Leadership Team. Updates on the ministry and on safeguarding were also shared. The contemplative sisters also shared updates on their communities and journey in the new governance. Open space was provided for questions and clarifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Activities to care for the body and soul were also provided during and in between sessions. The prayers prepared and the space for expressive arts were also much appreciated. This balance of being and doing, of self-care and caring for others is what we hope the whole mission year would be for all as the Province continues to navigate its way towards the new governance structure, in God\u2019s grace and help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we begin a new mission year, the Local Leaders of communities gathered for their annual meeting last July 15-18, 2024 at Maryridge Retreat and Renewal Center in Tagaytay City.
