A fine group of girls accepted the invitation to spend together, in a simple and joyful atmosphere, the Feast of the Saints starting from First Vespers.
Already around 5 p.m. they arrived at the Motherhouse well equipped with radiant smiles and provisions cheerfully prepared to make the celebration tastier.
The Eucharistic Celebration, preceded by the opportunity to celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation, immediately united Heaven and earth in the joy of the encounter with Jesus.
And then… following the “arrows” of the young Christian witnesses… everyone in the large entrance hall, ready to play, “fighting” vices and “earning” virtues, in the various challenges that saw “WINGS” vs “HALOS” (a crushing victory for the latter!).
Following the arrows, we move on again, this time toward the refectory, to share the delicious things brought and to take advantage of this time to get to know one another better.
And last but not least… a special moment, in the Chapel, all eyes are now on Jesus… present in the Blessed Sacrament. He is the true protagonist of the feast, the Friend for whom all the Saints gave their lives, the Friend who for them and for us gave Himself on the Cross!
Being together was truly wonderful, and now it is night and time to go; some parents, tired but smiling, try to retrieve their daughters, wrapped in farewell hugs… The feast is over, the journey has begun, and joy will not be long in coming!
