GRATITUDE FOR HAVING BEEN CHOSEN AND SENT: That is the common sentiment in these reflections by missionary Little Sisters of the Poor Sr. Joseph Marie, Sr. Stephen, and Sr. Marie Cecilia. Each describes the beauty of missionary life, in which—even as one shares the Gospel with other peoples--one can go beyond oneself and be so greatly enriched by the cultural treasures that God has poured out on all. And what of the Cross in missionary life? Our Little Sisters assure us from their lived experience, “The sacrifices are always fruitful.”
Considering the missionary call in light of today’s young men and women, our Little Sisters relate their observations of the younger generation that resonate with the Sisters’ own experience of a deep desire for self-gift, for making a difference, and for creating the ‘better world’ to which the Gospel calls us all. Do these same desires resound in your own heart? Check it out!
