Rome (Italy). <\/strong>\u00a0On 13 December 2025, the Past Pupils of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians from around the world gathered online to express their Christmas wishes to the Superior General of the FMA Institute, Mother Chiara Cazzuola.<\/p>\n

Approximately 120 participants represented all the Federations, including the World President, Maria Carmen Castillon; the Vice President, Olivia Furlan; the General Councilor for the Salesian Family, Sister Leslie S\u00e1ndigo; and the World Delegate, Sister M. Sahaya Sangitha Rani.<\/p>\n

The celebratory moment \u2013 facilitated by translation into various languages – began with prayer through the video of a song that described the situation of people experiencing difficult situations in the world and invited Baby Jesus to go among them to heal them.<\/p>\n

Afterwards, the President welcomed everyone, greeted Mother Chiara and thanked her for being present virtually among all the Past Pupils.<\/p>\n

In her message, Mother referred to the three Magi kings who went in search of the King following a star, which is “a sign from heaven to indicate that darkness is conquered forever.”<\/em> The King, manifested in His humility and littleness, was recognized by the kings, who were filled with joy.<\/p>\n

Mother concluded by saying that \u201cThere is a lesson to be learned from them.\u00a0 In life you always have to start over every day. Faith is like a fascinating, if often anxious, journey, always in search of God<\/em>.\u201d Mother Chiara urged the Past Pupils to be “stars that shine in the world to illuminate our contemporaneity with light and hope and continue the path towards the future.”<\/strong> <\/em>She wished everyone a Holy Christmas filled with joy and peace and a new year filled with hope.<\/p>\n

All the participants of the encounter expressed their gratitude to\u00a0 Mother for her profound message and, in turn, expressed their wishes through a video with the collection of messages from all the Federations of the world. The virtual celebration concluded by thanking each other for their presence at this traditional and charismatic moment that allowed us to reach Mother despite the great distances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
