Welcome back to our newsletter, New Frontiers! This edition covers a six-month period of JPIC and UN-NGO activity.
In the morning of New Year's Day, some RSCJ from the Probation and Mother House Communities joined the March for Peace organised by the Sant’Egidio Community in Rome.
A letter to the Family of the Sacred Heart from the JPIC CoCo. This includes a "Summary of the Meeting Process" and "Next Steps Looking to the Future."
"What we have seen and shared, and the cries that we have heard during these days, call us to be givers of life... to be artisans of hope.... Might this be a new moment and call to greater radicality on the part of the Society of the Sacred Heart and of the whole Family of the Sacred Heart?"
The JPIC International Meeting would not have been possible without the help of so many people who worked behind the scenes.
Daphne Sequeira rscj, the JPIC Link to the Central Team, delivered the Closing Message.
"JPIC is a style of LIFE, of relationship, of ‘caring’. It is the living out of our commitment to Jesus and to those who are close to his heart."
"... through our contemplation of the pierced Heart of Jesus, we are impelled to protect life in the suffering humanity in our own countries, provinces and regions where we represent the Society."
"I feel that today’s experiences are asking us all to commit ourselves to listen with all of senses so that we may understand fully before we speak."
"My desire is to be more aware about unjust systems and to help young people in their search for a just and peaceful world."
