Vic, Spain. On April 26, the international experience “Encounter with Claret 2025” officially began, bringing together 12 Claretian Missionaries from 9 different provinces. The initiative aims to deepen the participants’ spiritual connection with St. Anthony Mary Claret in the very land where he forged his missionary vocation.
The encounter opened with a Eucharistic celebration presided over by Fr. Máxim Muñoz, CMF, Prefect of Spirituality of the Sanctus Paulus Province. The Eucharist, described as the heart of the experience, will guide the spiritual journey of the group throughout the days ahead.
Coordinated by Frs. Juan Carlos Martos, CMF, and Josep Rovira, CMF, the programme blends prayer, reflection, pilgrimage, and fraternal sharing. It offers a vital immersion in Claret’s spirituality and missionary legacy.
The participants now begin a journey of spiritual renewal and reconnection with their Claretian identity, inspired by the Founder’s life and legacy in Vic.
