Northern Regional Meeting 1 of CEBs

On September 6, 7 and 8, 2024, the city of Boa Vista/RR, hosted the meeting of the Base Ecclesial Communities (CEBs), of the North Region 1, which brought together approximately 200 people, coming from the Dioceses of a region of great challenges: Alto Solimões - Coari - Parintins - São Gabriel da Cachoeira - Borba - Itacoatiara - Tefé - Manaus. The theme of the meeting was: “CEBs, Church of the Amazon - House of Encounter, Welcome and Ministeriality”.

The participation and joy were contagious. Proposals were made and commitments were also made: permanent Bible circles, with local support, including different subjects, such as the life of young people, integral ecology, politics, the common home, women, public health, homeless people, working in a network and under the inspiration of CEBI, and in community life-ministeriality. The need for community animation, spirituality and formation was also highlighted.


The promotion of environmental spirituality in the communities and actions to eliminate disposable plastics were proposed, in addition to raising awareness about caring for the common home, in all areas of the community; the creation of community gardens, planting trees, avoiding the use of pesticides, and water care.


The advisors helped with the reflection, encouraging us to look at the house from the inside and outside, that is: look inside ourselves, our groups, our home; and outside: the socio-political, environmental, social, community situation, etc.


We, the Little Shepherd Sisters, participated in the meeting and helped with the decoration. The conclusion was reached with the sending mass, with much enthusiasm and commitment.
