Miguel Ángel Hernández, has begun his visit to the communities of Mexico and the United States.
This trip, which begins in the Latin American country and will last until mid-November, has the objective of getting to know the religious, the ministries they serve and the laity of these countries.
This visit comes on the heels of his last fraternal experience in the communities of the Amazonwhere he had the opportunity to get to know first hand the realities of the mission in that region.
Now, the Prior General has explained that with this new tour he intends to get to know the religious of approximately 23 communities, as well as the ministries they serve: “I want to hear first hand the history of the different places where we are present, the work we carry out, the challenges we face and, of course, the dreams and projects we have”.
In addition to his meetings with the friars of each community, Fr. Miguel Ángel will also meet with lay collaborators, including members of the Secular Fraternity and the Augustinian Recollect Youth (JAR ).
In Mexico, his agenda includes a visit to several monasteries of Augustinian Recollect nuns, and his participation in the celebration of the opening Eucharist of the VII Assembly of the Federation of Monasteries on September 18, among many other activities.
