Columbia: meeting of Formators – CICLA

A meeting of Formators from CICLA was held in the priory of Villa de Leyva, from 4-24 August, in the presence of friars from several countries in Latin America (Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Mexico, Columbia, Peru, Costa Rica, Panama, Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador and Argentina).

The meeting was held to come together as brothers in Carmel, to live teresian fraternity and then to have a space to share personal and vocational experiences. Besides, another important time was spent in revising the Ratio Institutionis, during which each of the formators who were present was able to give his own perspective.

There was also time for on-going formation. There were contributions from Fr Carlos Damoniguez SJ, Mrs Myrna Torbay OCDS, Fr Jacob Iadarola OCD and the Sisters Anny and Lismar from the Discalced Carmelites of Caracas, Venezuela.

Apart from the above-mentioned experiences the friars had the opportunity to get to know some beautiful parts of the country.
