The Generalate community has held, for some years now, a garden party in the grounds of the house for friends and members of other congregations; in the past, around the time of Pentecost and in recent years on Pentecost Sunday.
This Pentecost Sunday, we started with a celebration of the Eucharist, held in the beautiful chapel of the Comboni Sisters next door, our own being too small for the occasion. Coinciding with the meeting of the Spiritan Bishops at the Generalate, this year we also had eight Spiritan Bishops celebrating Pentecost at the Generalate. The ceremony was presided by His Eminence, Cardinal Nzapalainga Dieudonné, C.S.Sp. and the homilist was Mgr. Maurício Agostinho Camuto, C.S.Sp. Other bishops were Archbishop John Bonaventure Kwofie, Gerard Maximim County, John Mbinda Makau, José Altevir da Silva and Pierre Jubinville.
