From December 5 to 9, the members of the General Council of the Lay Claretians Movement, Constantino Rodríguez, Magda Araujo, Fermín Mena and Vicente Sanz, gathered in the Curia of the Province of Santiago, in Madrid.

Later, through the magazine, new information about the encounter will be coming.
