To celebrate the Year of Consecrated Life and above all the Centenary of the Daughters of St. Paul, the FSPs of Argentina-Uruguay-Paraguay have relaunched their web site (www.paulinas.org.ar), which offers visitors a broad panorama of their presence and apostolic activities in South America. Many new things have been added to the site with regard to content and graphics.

The new design of the site, an update of data concerning the circumscription’s virtual book center, interactive maps, multimedial access, new resources, music and videos for prayer and reflection-all mark a step forward in our sisters- efforts to proclaim the Gospel and focus greater attention on the audiences they want to reach with the Good News.

Each year, the FSPs of Alba visit various parishes of the diocese to renew subscriptions for the Gazzetta d’Alba and our own Pauline magazines.
This year, urged on by Pope Francis’ continual invitation to read the Word of God, our sisters spent the month of December not only carrying out this apostolic activity but also diffusing Bibles and Gospels wherever they went. In addition, so as to celebrate our FSP Centenary and the Year of Consecrated Life, they have enriched their visitation program by making Fr. Alberione and Maestra Thecla better known to everyone and also by visiting the families of our pioneer Paulines to express the Institute’s gratitude to them.

The first stop on their itinerary was the town of Cortemilia. Our sisters will continue their “pilgrimage to the parishes” during 2015 so as to help the people of the area get to know and appreciate the fruits of holiness and apostolate produced by the “alberone” (“big tree”) of the Pauline Family, whose roots are plunged deep in the soil of Alba.
