Opening of the Chapter of Affairs<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

September 16, 2024:<\/em> Today was the opening of the Chapter of Affairs. This week, the Sisters will be discussing the revisions to the General Constitutions, and Proposals submitted by members of the international congregation.

Approved by the 2006 General Chapter, the General Constitutions provide inspiration and strength for the Sisters as they seek to live in the spirit of St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi, their models of a life united with Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim of the discussion is to update the constitutions to reflect the needs of the time and issues facing the congregation. The capitulars voted on topics including English as a common language, social media, and the protection of the environment.

Sister M. Maksymiliana, Provincial Superior of the Polish Province, shared information about the serious flooding in Poland that affects their Province. Some of the Polish capitulars will return home to help in the rescue and recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
