6yh July

July 6^th: the Prioress General, Sr. M. Elvira Bonacorsi, calls the roll of the sisters together in a climate of peace and fraternity in the chapter house before calling the members of law and therefore the elected delegates.

After this procedure, the President of the Assembly declared open our Third Ordinary General Chapter, with the theme: "Born from the Spirit let us walk in the breath of the Spirit." The Chapter is the highest authority of the Congregation today.

We are invited once again to be driven by Nicodemus, in search of the Master and so be reborn again.

Then we proceed to the reading and approval of the Norms of procedure.

We then selected as scrutinizers Sr. M. Ashi Patras and Sr. M. Barbara Bonfante and as moderator: Sr. Laura Grigis and Sr. M. Juana Segura.

We have also ratified the election of the secretary of the Chapter Sr. Lara Morelli and we have received the nomination of her assistant Sr. M. Stefania Lucchesi.

We had two experts from PasAr (Argentina) sr, Ana Maria Donato and Mrs. Adriana Escudero (photo) who are present to help us, as facilitators, on the methodology on the work and the different phases of animation.

After dinner, as a Family gathered by the Spirit we remembered in prayer each of the deceased sisters who have gone before us in the House of the Father in the last six years.
