The meeting took place from 22 to 24 November at the “Fraterna Domus” house of spirituality in Sacrofano (Rome). Consecrated men and women demonstrated a concrete will to walk together, involving the whole People of God, especially the poor and those on the margins.
They also had the opportunity to listen to the testimonies of the delegates of the two Unions to the Synodal Assembly in October 2023.
