Para peserta mengikuti misa pagi yang diipimpin oleh Pastor Robertus Bob Rarun MSC. Penanggungjawab liturgi adalah pemimpin komunitas Aspiran, Postulat, Novisiat, dan Skolastikat.
Pastor Bob mengajak kapitulares selalu peka dan peduli terhadap kebutuhan dan kesulitan sesama di sekitar kita. “Yesus telah menunjukkan ketergerakan hati-Nya oleh belas kasihan ketika memberi makan 4000 orang, yang selama tiga hari mengikuti-Nya dengan mukjizat perbanyakan roti dan ikan. Kita belajar dari Yesus yang tergerak hati-Nya dan menggerakkan hati para murid untuk bertindak dan mencari solusi atas penderitaan yang dialami sesamanya.”
Ia melanjutkan, “Pater Chevalier juga telah melakukan hal yang sama. Ia mendirikan tarekat MSC karena ketergerakan hatinya yang digerakkan Hati Yesus. Kemudian menggerakkan banyak orang untuk menjawab kebutuhan dan keprihatinan yang terjadi pada masanya. Kita pun ambil bagian dalam gerakan ini.”

Day Six (11 February 2023)
The participants attended the morning Mass led by Father Robertus Bob Rarun MSC. Entrusted with the liturgy were the leaders of the Aspirant, Postulate, Novitiate, and Scholasticate communities.
Father Bob invited the participants to always be sensitive and concerned about the needs and difficulties of those around us. “Jesus showed His heart was moved by compassion when feeding 4000 people, who for three days followed Him through the miracle of the multiplication of loaves and fish. We learn from Jesus, who was moved by His heart and moved the hearts of the disciples to act and seek solutions for the suffering of others.”
He continued, “Father Chevalier also did the same thing. He founded the MSC congregation because his heart was moved by the Heart of Jesus. He then moved many people to respond to the needs and concerns that occurred in his time. We also take part in this movement.”

Eleventh Session
Father Ignasius Welerubun MSC acting as the moderator started the session by explaining the session’s agenda, namely participation and partnership.
The expert speaker person who assisted the process of reflection and discernment was Father Paulus Laurentius Pitoy MSC. He
emphasizes the importance of cooperation, participation and partnership in the congregation. He asked, why do we need to partner and with whom do we partner? MSC priests need to pay attention to the movement of the laity who live the vision of the Spirituality of the Heart of the Founder, especially the Laymen of the Chevalier Family (AKC).
Furthermore, Mgr. Estephanus Rolly Untu MSC spoke about MSC’s partnership experiences with dioceses, especially the Manado Diocese and the hopes of the dioceses as working partners.

The relationship between priests, the MSC and the diocesan priests is facile and conducive. His Grace also admitted that certain times, some “discomfort” may make the relationship a little tenuous due to differences in views and due to lack of communication. For this, he apologized sincerely to the Governing Council and members of the MSC. (Secretariat Team)
