Find here the September editorial by Marianne de Boisredon, head of Fondacio France: Happy fraternal return to all! "Brothers become friends and traveling companions who help us advance on the path to a brighter life."
September opens us up to a new beginning and to gaining new momentum! The start of the school year is a time that invites many of us to organize ourselves in a certain way, and to make choices that will shape our entire year until next summer.
At Fondacio, it is a joy to organize back-to-school days in the region to reconnect with people in the network and to invite any new person who would like to come and discover the proposals put forward by our movement. You can find all the richness of the 2021-2022 program in the new catalog and of course on this site.
This new school year, which is still beginning with some uncertainties, will require all of us to be anchored and confident. As Christians, we are called to be life-transmitters. To do this, we must first and foremost embody the "good news"! "I will believe in God when Christians have the heads of the resurrected," said the philosopher Nietzsche. At Fondacio, we cultivate simple and authentic joy and seek to offer a positive and joyful face of the Church. Our vocation expresses our desire to be a ferment of hope and awakeners of humanity. Fondacio will be present with other movements in 4 cities of the next Mission Congress on the weekend of October 1, 2 and 3, 2021: Strasbourg, Lyon, Toulouse and Rennes!
We will also be attentive to what will emerge from the Synod on Synodality and the Governance of the Church launched by Pope Francis. We can all contribute to a different future for the Church, and in society, by being beings of dialogue.
This year again, Fondacio will be close to you to embark and accompany you on your life path. Our community is one and diverse, offering multiple places to recharge with others, in order to awaken the best in all!
To define your major events for the year, don't hesitate to take part in one of the "Personal Training Plan" workshops organized in the regions.
I wish you a very good start to the new school year and also a wonderful year, filled with discoveries and progress for yourselves and your loved ones. May this be an opportunity for you to take regular times of inner listening to make choices inspired by the Holy Spirit! The Spirit is blowing, let us follow it!
Marianne de Boisredon,
Foundation Manager in France
