Romania - CRSM:
The 22nd General Assembly was held on September 17-20, 2011, on the theme «Consecrated life heading where? Signs of Hope in the Romanian reality». 45 sisters representing different congregations attended.
Despite difficulties encountered in facing today’s challenges (material and spiritual family crisis, moral and emotional poverty, individualism, consumerism, communication difficulties, lack of unity among Christians too, the dramatic consequences of human trafficking…) , the involvement of the consecrated persons is a sign of Hope, not because of their number or of the quality of the projects but because Happiness is the «Divine Project».
