We in Portugal are about to enter an exciting weekend: we will have our XII Portuguese National Assembly, to be held at Fátima, where Pope Francis will soon come and visit us! Well, “us” Portuguese in general, not CLC itself, unfortunately... 😉
It will be a special moment for Portuguese CLC, as around 200 Delegates and Staff will be together to choose (amongst other things) a new National Team and discern about our mission for the next 3 years: “To Care For and Send” is our motto, as we will be looking at our community and to those that address us (To Care For) in order to better collaborate with the Lord in building His Kingdom in whatever mission inspired by Him (Send)!
In such a special occasion, we ask all of you to pray for us and to join us at www.an2017.org - a blog specially prepared to let all CLC’ers (Portuguese and non-Portuguese) know what is going on in Fátima and, with the grace of the Lord, feel inspired by Him! At the best of our efforts we will include posts in portuguese and english... 🙂
See you all at www.an2017.org!
With all our best,
The Portuguese National Team
