Connected in a network, and not sitting on the treasure chest of their own spirituality, but sharing it with all those who are on the way.\u2019 Paul Wennekes.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery type=&#8221;image_grid&#8221; images=&#8221;17022,17024,17026,17028,17030,17032&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]The afternoon was characterized by the official welcome by Sr Marie-Marthe Sch\u00f6nenberger, Superior General, and a first round of introductions, during which our moderator, Anne Elisabeth H\u00f6fler, presented the working method for the congress.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gottesdienst und Einstiegseinheit<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-congresses","category-news-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17042\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scsc-ingenbohl.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
