Rome (Italy).<\/strong> On 20 October 2025, in the aftermath of the great day of the Canonization<\/a><\/strong><\/span> of Sister Maria Troncatti, the participants in the celebrations met at dawn at the entrance to the Paul VI Hall in the Vatican to participate at the Audience <\/strong><\/a><\/span>granted by Pope Leo XIV to the Pilgrims who had come for the Canonization.<\/p>\n

The colored hats with the writing, \u201cSaint Maria Troncatti pray for us,\u201d and the bags with the logos, but above all the Salesian joy fully experienced in such an important event for the FMA Institute and for the entire Salesian Family, distinguished the group, made up of Mother Chiara Cazzuola and the General Council,\u00a0 Mother General Emeritus, Sister Yvonne Reungoat, from the novices, from the FMA from the General House, from the Houses of Rome, and several Provinces, from Provincials, missionaries, young people of the SYM, members of the Salesian Family, benefactors, FMA and young people of Ecuador, from the miraculously cured, Juwa Bosco, with his family and some Shuar, the relatives of Sister Maria Troncatti, and the citizens of Corteno Golgi and Brescia.<\/p>\n

The immense Hall was filled as the other groups gathered for the new Saints, in particular pilgrims from Venezuela, two of them being canonized were Venezuelan Blesseds. While waiting for the Holy Father, the participants had the opportunity to share the emotions of those intense and unique days, to take photos with the banners created for the occasion, to make videos and interviews to document and preserve these unforgettable moments.<\/p>\n

Once the applause was over, Pope Leo addressed the pilgrims, expressing the joy of meeting them and thanking in particular the Cardinals, the Bishops, the religious Superiors, and the civil authorities. He went on to say, \u201cThe joyful and solemn event we celebrated yesterday reminds us that the communion of the Church involves all the faithful, in space and time, in every language and culture, uniting us as the people of God, the body of Christ and the temple of the Holy Spirit. The men and women whom we proclaimed Saints yesterday are for all of us bright signs of hope, because they offered their lives in the love of Christ and of their brothers and sisters.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Afterwards, he addressed himself in particular to those gathered for the various Saints. Thus, for the Holy FMA:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also praise the Lord for<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>sister Maria Troncatti<\/em><\/a><\/span><\/strong>, Salesian Saint who dedicated her life to serving the indigenous peoples of Ecuador. Combining medical expertise and passion for Christ, this generous missionary cared for the limbs and hearts of those she assisted with the love and strength she drew from faith and prayer. Her work, truly tireless, is for us an example of a charity that does not give up in difficulties, rather transforming them into opportunities for a free and total gift of itself.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\r\n
