New mission in Uruguay
The Missionary Community of Betharram in Uruguay moves into a new residence. The religious, Fr Angelo Recalcati SCJ (Superior), Fr Eder Chaves Gonçalves SCJ (Parish Administrator) and Br Victor Torales SCJ (Bursar), joyfully celebrated with the local community, the beginning of a new phase of their ministry in the Diocese of Tacuarembo-Rivera.
Sunday, March 5, they were officially entrusted with the pastoral ministry of the parish of St. Elizabeth of Portugal, in the city of Paso de los Toros, 250 km from Montevideo.
In the photos, we see the community during the concelebrated Mass in the parish church and the laity of the six sub-stations welcoming them with renewed hope. The Bishop, Mons. Julio Bonino, invited them to "run to embrace life’s call”.
After 156 years, the Betharramite Religious keep saying "Here I am”, in Uruguay.
