Following the conclusion of the Provincial Chapter, from May 25 to June 2, Brother Pascal Ahodegnon, Superior General of the Hospitaller Order of Saint John of God, accompanied by Brother Dairon Meneses, General Secretary, made a fraternal visit to the ministries of the Latin America and Caribbean Province in the Andean Region.

Clinics, nursing schools, social outreach centers, and shelters: each ministry offered a glimpse into the richness of the charism of hospitality, expressed through mental health care, education, vocational training, and the accompaniment of children, young people, adults, and older persons.

Today, we are all Saint John of God. With these words, Brother Pascal invited the Brothers and co-workers to recognize themselves as protagonists of a single mission: to make visible those who remain invisible, to bring hope to those who suffer, and to build a more humane community in every center. He reminded them that hospitality is a shared responsibility that requires creativity, innovation, and the ability to work together.

At the end of the visit, a sense of gratitude remains, together with a renewed invitation, to continue transforming society through hospitality, bringing life, hope, and dignity wherever suffering exists.

The mission continues to live on every time a person feels welcomed, accompanied, and loved according to the spirit and style of Saint John of God.
