Joaquina’s legacy is present among us, through the pedagogy of love.<\/p>\n\n

During the month of April we participated in various activities as part of our mission at the Vedruna Assistance Center<\/strong>. The first experience was a reading day<\/strong> in the park of the Center itself, open to the participation of our children, adolescents, their families and the community in general. <\/p>\n\n

Every year, the Center offers this space to the community. This year, the activity took place on April 12, with the theme of the book “The Little Prince”.<\/strong> The setting was prepared with great affection by the work team and our students, creating a cozy environment, special for the moment. Numerous books were offered that participants could read, take home or give as gifts to other interested people. There was also a space for face painting, among other attractions, and we shared delicious refreshments. <\/p>\n\n

We celebrate the power of words!<\/strong> We gather to share stories, ideas and the magic of reading – every page we turn is a new adventure! <\/p>\n\n

During these days so significant for our Christian faith, with the celebration of the Easter of our Lord<\/strong>, we had special moments with the children and adolescents. Together with Sister Lena, the novice Angie and the accompaniment of the educators, we participated in a celebration in which the children and adolescents drew the signs of hope of the Risen Lord present in their environment. As a concrete gesture, they sowed sunflower seeds<\/strong>, which since then are cared for and accompanied daily in their growth. <\/p>\n\n

Through these actions, they learn that, “Nature responds with joy when we take loving care of it!”<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n
