To Provincial and Regional Superiors, all Assumptionist communities, and lay Assumptionists in the world

In a short while we will be celebrating the anniversary of Father d’Alzon’s death in 1880.  And in many Provinces this will mark the beginning of the 2010 Bicentennial celebration of his birth. 

Father André and I are currently in France for the canonical visitation of the communities here and on the 21st will gather with a large number of brothers and sisters at the Saint-Lambert-des-Bois community just outside of Paris for Eucharist, a conference by Father Jean-Paul Périer-Muzet, a festive meal and Evening Prayer to celebrate the founder and what he means for us today.  Later, on the 27th of November, we will be in Nîmes to inaugurate the D’Alzon Museum that has been created near the chapel of the Oblate sisters, where Father d’Alzon is buried.  You can be sure that we will be thinking of all of you in a special way at those events.

“Faithful to Emmanuel d’Alzon… for the coming of the Kingdom”

Preparing for the General Chapter of 2011

Being in Rome for the feast of those two great apostles, saints Peter and Paul, is a special grace. I made my own personal pilgrimage to the tomb of Saint Paul just a few days ago and will visit the tomb of Saint Peter as well. This seems to be an appropriate time to write these few words about an important Congregation event that will take place in just a few months from now.

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO WITH THIS LETTER?
• First, give it a good reading and some personal thought.
• Perhaps do some additional reading,
   - of the articles cited in the footnotes;
   - of other work published where you are, in your
     language, for your ecclesial and cultural context.
• Then, talk in community about the topic, less about the
answers given here than about the questions posed:
   - You might do this on the basis of your questions and
personal reflections, which you might commit to paper
and distribute to members of the community;
   - why not send your texts to the Superior General
( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it )?
