In the entrance monition, Sister Mar\u00eda Juana Tom\u00e1s said that it was about &#8220;making grateful memory of Joaquina de Vedruna&#8221; in the final stretch of the &#8220;road to the bicentenary of the foundation&#8221;, in communion with &#8220;the whole Vedruna Family, that from different realities, from different latitudes, with different ways, celebrates the life of Joaquina, recognizing in her a generous heart of a mission that inspires&#8221;.   <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"pgc-sgb-cb wp-block-pgcsimplygalleryblock-justified \" data-gallery-id=\"4de80445\"><div

inspires&#8221; was held at the L&#8217;Atlantida Theater in Vic. The event focused on the <strong>figure of Joaquina <\/strong>and how her charism (from its triple dimension of healing, educating and liberating) continues to inspire sisters of every generation, who find in the foundress the inspiration they need to respond to the challenges of their time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Provincial of Europe, <strong>Mar\u00eda Gracia Gil<\/strong>, pronounced some words that synthesized the message of the presentation and highlighted how Joaquina has been a light because she has known how to be faithful to this self-transcendence, with her gaze fixed on reality, and maintaining and adapting over time the spiritual heritage received. From quotations and references to the life of the Foundress,<strong> testimonies were given by sisters <\/strong>from the former provinces of Europe, now unified, who told what seduced them about the charism of Joaquina, what inspires them and how they imagine the future of this charism.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"pgc-sgb-cb wp-block-pgcsimplygalleryblock-justified \" data-gallery-id=\"bdf85561\"><div
