Victoria, a volunteer from Volontariat International Sacré-Coeur of the BFN Province, shares about her experience with the RSCJ in Kenya.

After an 8-day retreat with Marisol Soler rscj (ESP) and the evaluation of the modules, the Renewal Program in Rome closed on the 11th of August 2019.

Seventeen RSCJ from 11 countries and three RSCJ-members of the Ongoing Formation Commission are now in Rome for a renewal program that will run from 2nd July to 11th August 2019. Each week we will post some photos of their shared experience.

We are a group of 17 RSCJ, accompanied by three members of the Ongoing Formation Commission (OFC), with the desire to renew ourselves in the Society. Our program runs from July 2 to August 11, 2019.

A delegation of seven is representing the Society of the Sacred Heart at the 2019 United Nations High Level Political Forum. Follow our delegates through the accounts that they will send us each day.

Our sharing enabled us to feel the pulse of each region, and opened for us a rich exchange which allowed us to welcome one another and be enriched by our diversity.

We spent our day on the theme “Our mission as One Body,” exploring the different services and ways that could help us to build together our Cor Unum for the mission.

It may seem like we already know all these things; but the invitation is is for us to truly be transformed and to live out these insights.

We learned new ways of leadership. We were challenged to find new alternatives and to be open to weave these with the emerging demands of religious life. We were encouraged to make the shift from viewing realities as problems to seeing these as possibilities.

The triple question that Jesus asked Peter resonated with each one of us… and disposed us to consider together how we can animate the living of “community of goods and finances” in our respective Provinces.
