Rome, Wednesday, 10 October 2012
Sunday, October 7, Fr. Enrique Sánchez G., Superior General of the Comboni Missionaries, after having preached the Spiritual Retreat in Limone (Italy), has had the opportunity to pay a visit to our confreres of Arco community.

In a meeting with the confreres of Arco community, Fr. Enrique talked about the beauty of our missionary vocation and the value of our testimony even during illness or advancing age. He also presented some important points that were discussed during the recent Intercapitular Assembly. Regarding the decline of vocations in Europe, P. Enrique pointed out that we still have reasons to trust and hope in the growth of the Institute, due especially to the growing number of young people in formation in African countries where we are present and which is precisely the dream of Comboni to save Africa with Africa. This was followed by the Eucharistic celebration presided over by Fr Enrique. After lunch with the whole community, the Superior General returned to Rome.
