The SMA-NSA community in Feriole celebrated 50 years of presence at its house on via Vergani during a festival in September 2026. The event brought together priests, sisters, faithful, and friends to mark the anniversary under the theme of a new humanity flourishing united in Christ.

The celebration also honored the 170 years since the founding of the SMA, the 150 years since the founding of the NSA sisters, and the 200 years since the birth of Father Agostino Planque, the founder of the NSA Institute. The community also marked 50 years since the priestly ordination of Father Renzo Mandirola.
