Congratulation to our reelected Superior General for the next six years.
Sr. Maria Yaneth Moreno Rodriguez.

Today the capitulars greeted the day in serene silence as they remained in the calm presence of the Lord until the morning plenary started.

In the morning, the capitulars whose name have been mentioned in the constellations as the new Generalate Team were given a chance to speak to the plenum individually and share the diverse giftedness that they can bring to the betterment of the congregation in the next six years. Some of the sisters were also honest enough to share their limitations, but believing in the grace of God, they feel that the call of service is indeed special.

In the afternoon, the formal voting started. The two youngest capitulars, namely; Sr. Magdalena Kumorek and Sr. Silva Jaku were voted as tellers. The General Superior, who is the president of the general chapter and the General Secretary facilitated the process of election.

After some time, S. Maria Yaneth Moreno Rodriguez, SDS was re-elected as the General Superior for the next six years.

Before the day ends, Fr. Agustin Van Baelen, SDS – General Councilor and Secretary of the Society of the Divine Savior (Salvatorian Fathers) celebrated the Holy Mass with the leading of the delegates from Brazil, Santa Catarina and Brazil, São Paolo Provinces. The congregation extended their right hand towards S. Maria Yaneth as they pray for the grace to always seek the most vulnerable, the least, in order to embrace the Greatest, the Divine Savior, whom we follow together. This was symbolically manifested by the gesture of presenting Sr. Yaneth with an apron and sandals symbols of humble readiness to be at the service of others. As Fr. Agustin reminds us all, “A Salvatorian Family that welcomes the small and defenseless is teaching how to welcome God. In this way, we will fulfill the most profound mandate of Blessed Francis Mary of the Cross Jordan; making God known, serving and loving Him.”
