“Kairòs – Tempo” in the footsteps of Jesus the Good Shepherd

In sharing the celebratory moment experienced on September 3, 2025, in Albano Laziale, Rome, we believe it is meaningful to express it with the word "Kairos—Time" in its Christian meaning. This helped us answer the question "how?" by recounting the content of the days and years, the events and occasions that have marked our lives: as a response to the call, as the effort and joy of walking in the footsteps of the Shepherd, as a humble and faithful witness in the Congregation, in and with the Church, "People of God," with choices and actions that continue to lead our history and that of all humanity to one goal: "One flock, one Shepherd."

And it is in this perspective that our "thanksgiving" to God, who continues to dwell in our lives, arises, as well as to all those who have "supported and accompanied" us to this day.
