February 2023

The temperature in the morning is still quite low, but the plum trees in this area are in full bloom, announcing the coming of spring! 
*****
Shinmeizan wishes to remember in a very special way Kimiko Nobunaga, who died on February 1^st, at Uajima (Pref. of Ehime). She was a very active and lively member of our community for ten years.

Besides welcoming guests who come to Shinmeizan  (like the Imamura family on February 26!)

activity of Shinmeizan is more and more online !

not only for what concerns contacts with partners in interreligious dialogue, but also as far as other activities are concerned, that keep each member of Shinmeizan very busy, like, for example:

  -   the study meetings, on the part of Sr. Maria, organized by her Congregation,  

  -   the participation of Fr.Franco in the meetings of the Subcommittee for the new translation of the Roman Missal,

  -   the editing of the magazine `Sei Zabieru no ashiato` (On the footsteps of Saint Francis Xavier) by Fr. Claudio,
