Meeting of sisters responsible for formation

As every year, the Provincial Superior, Superiors of the formation communities and sisters of all European provinces responsible for formation, met from 27th until 31st March 2014. Sister Margita Tušanová participated on the meeting from the General Council.

This year the meeting took place in Marianka near Bratislava. 19 sisters together with the translators attended the meeting.

The sisters worked on the theme: The Identity of formation communities of the Sisters of the Divine Saviour.

The spiritual administrator of the University pastoration centre in Košice, Marek Forgáč, came to offer the sisters valuable impulses about the process of accompanying. Together with questions about religious formation, the impulses were a motivation for work during these days.

In this jubilee year also Mother Alphonse Marie “spoke” to the sisters. She was not only the foundress, but also the first sister responsible for formation in the congregation. The sisters reflected on her advices and thoughts, which are actual also today.

Marianka is the oldest place of pilgrimage in Slovakia. One of the monks from the Congregation of Solace Brothers of Gethsemane, who administrate this place, told the sisters more about its history. At the end, sisters from France and Germany were invited to visit Bratislava and the local community.
