We joyfully concluded the Young Adult Workshop for postulants at the St. Francis of Assisi Formation House in Tangará da Serra, Mato Grosso, in central-western Brazil.
The guides who led this workshop were Andrea Cristina Gonçalves Carvalho and Maria Ignes Tombini, from the Tangará da Serra Local Coordination, part of the Brazil West 7 National Coordination, which in turn belongs to the Brazil West Zone.
Ten postulants, future seminarians, participated. Four of them were Haitians who spoke Portuguese poorly, but who began and concluded the workshop, perfectly following all the sessions.
We received many life-transforming words from all the participants, expressing their appreciation for how much the workshop helped them on this journey.
They asked us to continue the workshop sessions because waiting until next semester would take too long…
They were amazed by the Father’s love and Father Ignacio’s messages.
They enjoyed the experience of praying with nature and made a commitment to try to be better people every day!
