As the chapter progresses, the topics discussed become more and more condensed. Teams have started to present texts to the plenary. And the drafting committee is increasingly busy examining them and refining the language in order to come up with the best possible expression of the fruit of the capitulants’ sharing.

Yesterday, the chapter offered us a marathon with a full day of plenary sessions. Today the teams are taking over after having received, this morning, the necessary indications for their work.

Here we are again with the daily report. The plenary sessions occupied the whole day and there were several topics on the agenda: continuing education, self-care, accompaniment of confreres, interculturality, personnel resources and financial material resources. I will share some of the points with you.

The work of the Chapter resumes today, Monday, after a visit to Assisi and to Pompeii on Saturday. Yesterday, Sunday, was a holiday and there was a celebration with religious communities close to our Generalate for the day of Pentecost. We heard a short meditation on each of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit.
