The Institute is alive… the Institute walks according to the Lord’s plan,

searching for new ways of speaking and witnessing Him,

but always with continuity.

  1. Che piacere vedere di nuovo M. Elide Testa e le nostre 4 Madri Generali tutte insieme!
    L’incontro avra’ suscitato certamente tante emozioni e portato tanta gioia all’assemblea capitolare.
    Grazie Care Madri per tutto cio’ che avete donato e ancora donate alla nostra Famiglia Religiosa. Il Signore ve ne ricompensi con l’abbondanza delle sue benedizioni. Un abbraccio e auguri di tanto bene.

  2. It is very touching for us too here in the Philippines to see in the picture our Four Mother Generals during this momentous 15th General Chapter… we are very far from you, geographically that is, but we also strongly feel the emotional impact crossing through boundaries…. thank you so much sisters for sharing the picture… it feels like a gathering together of the journeys made and still carried on… onward to our 200 years! God shall indeed bring everything to its completion. Viva Canossa!

  5. A big thanks to God, to each General Chapter member and to any Canossian Sister who have participated in it. Thanks for the chance given to many others to participate in the Chapter in different ways. It has been really a celebration of the entire Institute; we have felt we were all together. Thanks for the loving energy put in, it is not all over, you have traced a new path to walk in the new century of the Canossian institute. Grazie!
