Visit of Benedict XVI to Cameroun and Angola (17-23 March 2009)
 |
While reading closely the speeches of the Pope during his recent travels in Africa, I noticed that he dealt with a large number of themes with clarity and depth. These themes are also of interest to us as Spiritan missionaries. So, I wish to highlight some sections and offer them for reflection to all my Spiritan brothers and sisters. Nothing however, could be better than to read the speeches themselves which are accessible on the site www.vatican.va .

The purpose of the Center is to foster creative fidelity to the Spiritan charism in the contemporary world, through a partnership between professed Spiritans, Spiritan Lay Associates and their collaborators.
