“Young people and vocation ministry” was the theme of the discussions held on Monday, April 7, by the Provincials of France and of Congo.
This theme gave rise to a useful debate on the relevance of continuing our efforts in this domain despite the many difficulties that exist especially in the West: secularization, de-Christianization, etc. We are convinced that God is still calling and that we must transmit his call to young people without giving up hope. We believe that we must have happy, prayerful and missionary communities in order to attract new brothers to Assumption.
Beaudouin Ngoa Spanish-French translator
In other countries, it is not vocations that are lacking but
formators. There too we must be creative – despite the lack of
manpower – by encouraging new initiatives.
