From 9th-11th January, the zonal assembly of the brothers in Peru (an area that belongs to the Andean province) took place, with the participation of 25 brothers, taking into account the presence of the interprovincial Latin American novitiate community in Lima. The first day was dedicated to a dialogue around the Provincial’s letter concerning special situations and personal crises, as well as dealing with specific issues of life in the area of ??Peru.
On the second day, the work focused on the document of the recent General Chapter on pastoral and missionary conversion in the Church, defining some priorities for the coming years in the Province as a whole, that are to be integrated with the proposals from the areas of Colombia and from Ecuador.
On the third day, the economic reports of the zonal commission and the local communities were received, along with suggestions from the brothers for the best administration of the property belonging to the Province, the area and the communities.
Among other things, it was also agreed to organize an annual day with the lay pastoral workers of the zone of Peru, in the line of promoting integration between the religious and the lay people who work in the various pastoral areas.
