Formation Program in Spain’s Mater Unitatis Federation

On September 28 members of Spain’s Mater Unitatis Federation held a course on finances given by José Mª Herranz, O.S.A., at the monastery of Nuestra Señora de las Maravillas in Madrid.

The first part of the course dealt with the way of living and concretizing the vow of poverty in the consecrated contemplative life, starting from the following of Christ and dealing with practical questions.

In the second part he presented the document of the Sacred Congregation Boni dispensatores multiformis gratiae Dei which deals with the fundamental criteria that should govern the relationship between the different institutions that make up the consecrated life and material goods, essential for the survival and development of their own goals and charism.

The professor showed great experience and knowledge on the subject and gave us valuable guidance.

From October 7 to 11 the sisters took part in the ongoing formation course in the monastery of the Incarnation in Zaragoza. Salvador Villota, O. Carm., prior provincial of the Province of Aragon, Castile and Valencia, and doctor of Sacred Scripture presented the Wisdom and prophetic books. 

According to the possibilities of each monastery, sisters from Valencia, Madrid and Huesca attended in person. The rest of the sisters received it online, so all the monasteries of the federation participated. 

This year the Carmelite Nuns of the Federation of America also participated in this transmission, according to their possibilities and schedule compatibility, at the request of their president, M. Consuelo. Consuelo.

According to chronicler, Carmelite Sister Mª Brunilda Rodríguez, “As every year, we all received an abundance of spiritual fruits that Fr. Salvador, with his wisdom and humility, served us from the abundant table of the Word of God.”
