Sr Brigid gave an inspiring closing message. She began her talk with two questions: Have we been energized by the Spirit? Are we prepared to risk together for mission? The assembly responded unanimously YES!
Her message was centered on the Eucharist as a Sacrament of Evolution.
She recalled the great moments of our chapter:
We are called to embrace a new future that promotes an integrated approach to mission.
We celebrated in Caen the first anniversary of reunification; we expressed our historical evolution in the prologue to the constitutions which was approved in the chapter.
She recalled the input of Br Philip Pinto on the courage to listen to a God who is speaking to us from the midst of life today.
She quoted Pope Francis in Ladauto si : “In the Eucharist fullness is already achieved, the Eucharist is the living center of the universe.
She recalled the creative Discernment process to elect our new Leadership Team . Our direction statement points us towards the future
Before closing the chapter Sr Brigid invited Sr Ellen Kelly to say few words to the assembly.
Sr. Brigid invited the sisters to go forth to give witness to being “communion” using our internationality, our global solidarity as Eucharistic people to wake the world.

Categorical your persona on the mat with Gi Patches There are two things to bear in mind whenever you choose gi patches for BJJ. Display screen printed patches are generally not so sturdy, ultimately deteriorating over time, however they are very low cost for those who order a bunch from a good common display <a href=http://urll.eu/gipatches>bjj patches for gi</a> screen printers. I wish to make some custom patches with my grappling membership's (@ school) emblem on it to patch on my gis. The patches are a bit on the upper end price facet, but while you factor in they're coming from Australia, the free delivery, and the guarantee I believe it is an important deal.
Workforce patches, the unique gi company's patches, and symbolic patches are fantastic, but on the subject of manufacturers you assist, the patches form of reduce the value of the remainder of the patches. I've at all <a href=http://urll.eu/rashguards>rashguard punisher</a> times had my eye on RVDDW and Isami brand gear however wasn't sure about the right way to order within the US. ChokeSports made the process extremely straightforward and the shipping was amazingly quick even together with the time allotted for custom patchwork.
Personally I do not suppose it is a good idea to patch your gi up with other manufacturers that are not sponsoring you/aren't originally the corporate of the gi itself. Once your patches are sewn on and cared for properly, they <a href="http://urll.eu/bjjbelts">submissionfc</a> may possible outlast the gi. One of many largest issues with conventional display printed patches is that they crack, peel, or fade with age and use; not good for Jiu Jitsu patches.
Crew patches, the original gi company's patches, and symbolic patches are high-quality, however when it comes to manufacturers you assist, the patches sort of lessen the worth of the rest of the patches. I've at all <a href=http://urll.eu/bmd>cheapest mma gear</a> times had my eye on RVDDW and Isami model gear but wasn't positive about methods to order within the US. ChokeSports made the method extraordinarily straightforward and the transport was amazingly fast even together with the time allotted for customized patchwork.
