Euroteam Newsletter - November 2023

Spiritually said...
In his letters, Saint Ignatius liked to speak of "setting the anchor of our hope in God" as a necessary attitude in difficult moments that required a discernment. To cast the anchor, it is to anchor ourselves in the depths of God, it is a call to the radicality of hope in the Christ, to attain the grace of being what He has called us to be. The more radical our hope will be, the more it is anchored in Christ, the better we will find the paths that lead us to live out the plentitude of our call.
Fr. Arturo Sosa, Message to the World Assembly in Amiens, 7th of August 2023.
