for the Solemnity of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul
Dearest sisters,
on
this Solemnity of the Holy Apostles
Peter and Paul, I desire to greet each
one of you what Blessed James Alberione
recommended to us since the first years
of our Congregation. “ Never seek our
satisfaction, esteem, human glory, but
seek only Christ. Peter and Paul who
have preceded us will give us something
and with divine grace, will obtain for
us the gifts and fruits of the Holy
Spirit.” (PrP VIII, 1956, p. 107)
Trusting in the intercession of these
powerful Protectors, let us set
ourselves to accept the grace to seek
ever more only Christ Good Shepherd and
in Him, to enjoy the gifts and fruits of
the Spirit in our journey toward the
fullness of life.
With
gratitude for your prayer which is
accompanying me faithfully, I assure you
also of my offering so that we may all
live in the perspective which the
Founder proposes to us even today.
I
embrace you all with affection,
Sr Marta Finotelli
Superior general
