We begin the Agustinian month and want to share this beautiful calendar so that you can reflect day by day through the charism of the Order of Saint Augustine, which has three pillars: Community, Interiority, and Service.
We hope you like it as much as we do and that it does your soul and heart a lot of good.
Happy Augustine Month!
Thiago is 20 years old and participated in the Augustinian Social Service from ages 7 to 12. We saw him improve year after year, learning to read, take care of things, and be responsible… In the mornings, he works at a café, and today we accompanied him to Dreicon for a job interview. In addition to sponsoring three children from ASS, Dreicon has joined in providing opportunities like this to the children who have been through our spaces, and we are planning many more things!
Thank you, Dreicon P.L.C., for the support, trust, and commitment you have shown.
We share with you a bit about the activity that the little ones did during the library afternoon a few weeks ago.
We all read together the book “Palabras Semillas (Seed Words)” by Magela Demarco and Caru Grossi. A story of words and images that invites us to rethink the value and impact that the words we use have on people.
Can words sadden another person even if it wasn’t our intention? Can words also heal and “plant” beautiful feelings?
Finally, the children chose different phrases and arranged them into different categories: Words of affection, coexistence, care, hurtful words, and… SEED WORDS
We invite you to reflect on what words we sometimes choose to connect with each other in our daily lives, engaging in an activity of questions aimed at empathy in different situations and scenarios.
They had a lot of fun, and we planted many seed words to use throughout our meetings!
A few days ago, we were presenting the activities of our Association at UCA, in the Seminar on Social Issues and Social Commitment, telling the students about the challenges and needs of this year.
Four teams of students from different majors (Journalism, Marketing, Educational Psychology, Public Accounting, Food Engineering, Systems Engineering, International Relations, among others) signed up to help us continue improving our work and have a greater impact on the lives of the families we support.
We are already working together!
Welcome! And thank you for joining this team that leaves a mark.
Thank you Social Commitment UCA for your support and trust.
