UISG Plenary Assembly – Rome, 5-9 May 2025

“Sowing hope in a changing world”

From 5 to 9 May 2025, more than 800 General Superiors of women religious congregations from around the world meet in Rome for the Plenary Assembly of the International Union of General Superiors (UISG). This great gathering, which is expected every three years, has as its theme: “Sowing hope in a changing world”.

In a global context marked by multiple crises—social, ecological, migratory, ecclesial—this Assembly is an opportunity to reflect together on the appeals of the Spirit for today’s religious life and for the future of the Church.

Sister Véronique Fabre, Superior General of the Congregation of Our Lady of the Cenacle, participates in this meeting. Elected in June 2022, with her experience as Provincial Superior for Europe-Togo, Sister Véronique represents the commitment of the congregation to respond to current challenges in a spirit of listening, discernment and collaboration.
