Communion, marked by the joy of following Jesus Christ

"The seminarians will find in them (the Shepherdess Sisters) support,

prayer, and witness of pastoral life."

(based on the writings of Fr. Alberione

– Ut Perfectus sito Homo Dei - UPS)

On November 18, 2025, the community of the Sisters of Jesus the Good Shepherd – Little Shepherdesses in Vitória/ES, held a gathering with the seminarians of the 6th semester of Philosophy – Salesian University – UNISALES, who are classmates of Sister Gabriele Camelo Moraes. Seminarians from the Archdiocese of Vitória, the Dioceses of Cachoeiro de Itapemirim, São Mateus and Colatina, as well as the Missionary Religious of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, participated in the meeting.

The community held a moment of prayer, giving thanks for the formative journey undertaken so far. It was an occasion to recognize and give thanks for the experiences lived, for the people who walk together, and for the graces of God, which strengthen the vocation and sustain the mission.

After the prayer, the participants shared an afternoon snack, fostering fraternal fellowship. The meeting proved to be a rich space for fellowship, marked by the joy of following Jesus Christ and by a shared commitment to serving God's people.
