In the Iberian Province’s planning for the year it was decided to hold an intergenerational meeting of religious of different ages. The first meeting took place from 31st January - 1st February in El Escorial. The purpose of the meeting was to promote growth in communion and union of the members of the Province. The meeting was facilitated by Brother Jesús Miguel Zamora, a De La Salle brother who is currently Secretary General of the Spanish Conference of Religious (CONFER).
During the meeting, the brothers met in small groups for personal sharing: who they are, where they have come from, the places they have passed through. There was also an opportunity for the brothers to share on how they came to enter the Congregation as well as the different communities they have lived in and what has hurt them or worries them the most. Another important question was ‘where and in what ways has God been on their road to Emmaus. The meeting ended with the Eucharist followed by a meal. The meeting was friendly and hopefully fruitful for all who took part.
