Despite the frigid weather, members of the Knitting Group from Cabrini Immigrant Services (CIS) – Dobbs Ferry, NY, went to St. Cabrini Nursing Home to enjoy meeting with some of the residents and to participate in a Paint and Sip Program.
The fun began with the van ride over to the nursing home in the St. Cabrini van. Rocio Soria-Morales, a social work intern at CIS-Dobbs Ferry, created the picture that was used for the program. She went step by step on how to create the picture of 2 snowmen. While ‘sipping’ soda, everyone worked on their ‘masterpieces.’ They were so proud of their creations.
At the conclusion of the time together, our artists enjoyed personal pizzas made by the kitchen staff at the nursing home. It was a great day and a fun time to be together!

We were 15 participants in the working groups with the participation of the Superior General, Sr. Maria Eliane, two Assistant Generals, Sr. Gilda and Sr. Patricia and the Secretary General Sr. Giuditta together with her colleague Claudia from the General Secretariat Curia.
On Sunday morning Jan. 26 ( Word Sunday) we participated in the Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica with the Holy Father whose Gospel was Jesus by the power of the Spirit receives the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. On Monday, 27, however, the meetings resumed in Via Sicilia. The opening prayer was led by Sr. Tatiana. After a little sharing of the previous days spent together, we listened to the talk by Fr. Fabio Pasqualetti SDB, entitled: “Communication as a mission. Social Influencers in the Catholic World, Challenges and Opportunities.” which helped us reflect on the challenge of communicating today in a complex and changing world. After a moment of dialogue we had the talk by Sara Braga, from the Good Shepherd Sisters Foundation, who spoke to us about “How to communicate mission in unity. Practical aspects and guidelines.” We worked in groups to be able to put on paper some of the ideas that had arisen in the previous days, on which we could work together even after this time of meeting. At the conclusion then of the day and the whole Jubilee we had a Eucharistic Celebration of Thanksgiving and a dinner together of pizza and sweets. We thank all the participants for their valuable contribution, for their Cabrinian passion and ardor, and for what they will continue to do to communicate to the world the Love of Christ in the style of Francesca Cabrini! Thank you!

“Staying steadfast to these principles in the face of powerful forces working towards contrary purposes may be one of the hardest challenges we will encounter — collectively and individually,” it said. “The efforts to be the face of compassion and hope amid actions that create chaos and fear will not be easy. This is a time when we will need one another, and a time when we can lend our voices and our support to many of the organizations and people of faith who are laboring to bear witness to the dignity of each person.” To read the entire account, please click
