from the 26 April Letter of Fr. Tomaž Mavrič, CM, Superior General of the Daughters of Charity
…the General Assembly represents immediately the entire Company. It enjoys supreme authority to elect the Superioress General and the members of her Council, to establish Statutes and Decrees for the good of the Company, and to confirm the Decrees passed by another General Assembly. Its mission is to evaluate and promote fidelity to the spirit of the Founders and determine the future direction of the Company in order to respond to the present-day needs of those you serve.
Therefore, the General Assembly is of utmost importance for your life and mission. I invite you to ask for the light of the Holy Spirit, as well as the intercession of Mary, only Mother of the Company. In preparation for the General Assembly, may you enter into the processes of the Domestic and Provincial Assemblies with open and faith-filled hearts.
From the 9 May 2025 Letter of Sister Françoise Petit, DC, Superioress General of the Daughters of Charity
In an atmosphere favorable to welcoming the Spirit and to deepening reflection on these realities, we chose the general theme, in other words, the spiritual and apostolic catalyst, for the upcoming Assemblies: “Artisans of peace and hope…”
… we [will] enter into the Assemblies period. Mary, she who placed her life in the Lord’s hands, will accompany us at each stage. Rather than relying on our own strength, let us, like her, trust and listen to the Spirit.
