18 sisters, 5 communities : 3 in Chile and 2 in Peru (April 2008)
- Great celebrations lived as Family events. - Celebration of our 40 years’ presence in Chile and 25 years’ presence in Peru. - Commitment of Chilean sisters. - Commitment of a Consecrated Lay woman in the Secular Branch. -Commitment of several associates. - Golden Jubilee of 3 sisters. - The tercentenary: The preparation of our annual gathering, focused on the celebration of the tercentenary, started by a five day retreat based on the spiritual pages was animated by each community in turn.. Five associate delegates participated for 3 days. A long pilgrimage took us round the meaningful places of our history. A member of the Secular Branch of the USA and all the associates of Santiago took part : they expressed their joy to belong to the Family through a moving theatrical performance. Several sisters and two associates were privileged to participate in the Forum, in the Family Assembly and in the international celebration in France (Saint Brieuc) on 27 August 2007.
- The “ the Americas “ Network The tercentenary year strengthened the bonds between North and South America : exchanges of sisters, visits of two associates and two consecrated lay women from the USA, many gestures of solidarity from the North : the USA Secular Branch contributed to the formation of Alicia Cortès who made her commitment as a consecrated secular in December 2006 ; Constance Charrette and Juanita Blais animated a week’s retreat at Antofagasta in July 2007. The solidarity and sharing is very enriching for the Family of the two Americas.
- The Associates
In 2002, they were 27, today they are 56. Thanks to their activities and to the financial support of the USA associates, the Chilean and Peruvian associates were able to see their dream come true : meet one another : their first annual meeting took place at Tacna, a Peruvian town situated on the frontiers between our two countries from 11 to 14 January 2008.
- The Secular Branch Since the consecration of the first lay secular on 17 December 2006, a few women from Santiago and Antofagasta are preparing themselves to live as consecrated lay women.
