News from the young professed
A reflection on our 'Interculturality' session
We, the temporary professed, participated in a session on the theme of interculturality with Maurizia and Victorine. These three days were rich in inputs, visits, testimonials and sharing. We began the session by visiting the SERMIG, “missionary service for young people”, created in Turin in 1964. We were very impressed by the faith of its founder in the resurrection, a force for the transformation of society, the “Arsenal of Peace”.

And Camille and Lorenzo, a French-Italian couple, gave a testimony of their daily intercultural experience. Theycreated their own culture ! And this was inspiring for how we live our community life !

We were very warmly welcomed by the community in Turin. After a snack with the elder sisters of the house, we went out with some of them to check that the gelati in the marketplace is still as good as ever. And it is !
We enjoyed the city centre of Turin, a plunge into the Italian culture. We recommend the visit !
