Encounter with Blessed Mary Angela and Blessed Father Honorat

On February 5, 2017, we met again in the Museum and Archives, to ponder over the writings of our Blessed Foundress and Blessed Father Honorat, the spiritual father of the Congregation. The texts which have been proposed to reflect upon, both from the writings of Mother Angela as those from Father Honorat?s letters to the Felician Sisters, in a very special way drew our attention to the spirituality of atonement in our Congregation. The Sisters shared their experience of different religious practices, which helped them to grow in this spirituality. Sisters highlighted anew the importance and richness of the Adorations of atonement. This is what Blessed Father Honorat wrote in 1888 in the Introduction to the Book of Life:


Likewise, I wish to remind you that ever since your beginning under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit you were well aware that this spiritual renewal ought to begin with the rebuilding of God’s neglected worship in the world by means of adoration of atonement.
