And the Day has come! After months of work and discernment as JPIC and as a first fruit of what we worked about Fratelli Tutti, encyclical letter of Pope Francis, we wish to share with all of you the great joy of launching of our provincial volunteering program “Unions of Fraternity”.

(Presentation video)

What is the profile of our volunteering program?

  • a space of communion, of home, of the family, where we can experience fraternal relationships that are open, healthy, solitary, of gratuity and empathy, that contribute in construction of a world every time more just, fraternal, honest and human.
  • a space of deepening and welcoming of the beauty of every human being that will favor self-knowledge, humanization and dignity of every human being as a living image of the Church.
  • a space of encounter and confrontation with reality that favors care and defense of the poor and neglected, that promotes reparation and restoration of dignity of a human being, and contributes to the liberating and healing service to the wounded body of the Church.
  • a space of listening and discerning of reality and of the most urgent needs of the Church. At the same time, a space where we can dream, suggest and execute concrete short-term response.
