On September 10, Saturday, Santiago de los Caballeros (the Dominican Republic) hosted the national encounter of the Mother Candida Family, with the presence of the Superior General of the Daughters of Jesus, Maria Inez Furtado. She herself spoke on “Shared Mission”, recalling that “it is time to accept the call to be ‘the family of Mother Candida’ in the Church in the two different vocations: consecrated religious life and lay Christian life, going deeper into its meaning and considering the scope and consequences of this call. Following the Determination of the 17th General Congregation, number 24, a new horizon is sensed for the Daughters of Jesus-Lay integration and we must discern and cooperate with the action of the Spirit.
