Day 22 September: Our response as a family to be gift in today’s world
“In this second stage of the Congress, we feel responsible for the gift which we have received. Therefore, in the complementarity of our vocations, we want to the visible witnesses of our Family identity, going forward together to make an impact in the various situations of our changing world.”
This introduction to the prayer expressed the unanimous feeling of the group and served as a backdrop to the work of the assembly.
In the morning there was much interaction among small intervocational groups followed by an assembly leading up to the first draft of the document which would gather together the calls received during these days.
The participants expressed their feelings and made some suggestions with regard to changes to the content of the document. Step by step, with group interaction and assemblies, a common thought began to emerge.
After an hour and a half, a direction for the next step became clear.
Each participant was invited to reflect on the following proposal in an atmosphere of prayer: The Family will become a significant gift in the world only insofar as each person becomes a more enthusiastic member.
- What do you now feel called to live personally in the light of the call to the Family?
- What are you going to do to help the Family in your country/context to understand and live the call of the Congress?
After the Eucharist, supper in the open air and a social drew the day to a close in an atmosphere of festivity.
