Vocational culture
‘I am neither here nor there, but where God wants me to be’: this is the faith that guides every true missionary. From the shores of Cochabamba to the river communities of Beni, the mission becomes a living presence among the peoples, participating in their daily life and discovering, in diversity, the surprising face of God. To be sent is to rediscover each day the grace of belonging only to the divine will.
Congregation of the Mission
At the heart of the Common Rules of the Congregation of the Mission, Father Giovanni Burdese guides us to rediscover poverty as an evangelical virtue, not an end in itself, but a means for evangelisation and service.
A spiritual journey in the light of the example of the poor Christ, for a poverty lived with freedom, discernment and love.
Formation
Organ donation is one of the highest expressions of human solidarity, capable of giving new life and hope to those awaiting a transplant. Discover the legal principles that protect dignity, freedom and safety in organ donation, between ethics, law and respect for the person. Choosing to donate means being a protagonist of a good that transcends all boundaries.
Vocational culture
Vocational discernment is the subtle and demanding art of purifying one’s deepest motivations, in order to recognise the voice of God calling each young person to the fullness of his or her existence. Only in inner silence and in the light of the Spirit can a person discover the authentic path of his freedom and mature courageous choices for the good of the Church and the world.
