... the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.» (Matthew 20:28)

«Aware of their responsibility before God, the Superiors will accept their mandate in faith and fulfil it in a spirit of service.

The following list indicates the leaders of each province and the changes that have recently taken place ... a moment of «acknowledgement for what has been», a moment of welcome and anticipation in the search for the future. We thank each sister for her «YES» in response to the call to service of responsibility.
