The National Assembly of the OCDS of Argentina was held from 28th through the 30th of March in the Spiritual Centre of Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe in Luis Guillón (Buenos Aires).
It took place in an atmosphere of joy and celebration, since it coincided with the anniversary of the birth of our Holy Mother, Saint Teresa of Jesus. For this reason, after the election of the new National Council, we shared a time of recreation during which the different communities presented several creative activities that had been prepared in advance to commemorate the birth of our Holy Mother Teresa.
During the three-day meeting, we were able to participate in a Mass presided by Fr. Ricardo Prado OCD (General Delegate for Argentina) with the Carmelite Sisters of the Monastery of Our Lady of Peace, who also gave us a warm welcome in their parlour. During the meeting, the new National Council was elected, with Alejandra Rocha, OCDS, as President.
The presence of Fr Ricardo Prado OCD throughout the meeting allowed us to share this moment with all the branches of our Carmelite Order in a true family atmosphere.
