Frati Minori Cappuccini begin second week of IX CPO

Delegates of the IX Consiglio Plenario dell’Ordine (CPO) have entered their second week of activities. Following a week of reflections on mission and testimonies, the friars began this week with a spiritual retreat led by Fabio Rosini, a priest of the Diocese of Roma and biblical scholar.

During the retreat on October 19, Rosini encouraged the friars to shift their focus from abstract ideals toward concrete actions within history. He advised the delegates to avoid treating faith and charism as ideologies, suggesting instead that they find a balance where their charism and lived reality support one another.

The second week also includes group work sessions focused on Mission, Collaboration, and Fraternità San Lorenzo.
