Fathers Ant\u00f3nio Panea and Jos\u00e9 Maria led the various sessions, presenting and showing us the fundamental values of how to live the Spirituality of the Blood of Christ. We were challenged to reflect on our current daily behavior in relation to our environment and those around us, the reality we observe, and our attitudes. We should have an attitude of humility, listening, service to our neighbor, and acceptance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"792\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/F1-792x1024.jpg?wsr\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/F1-792x1024.jpg 792w, https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/F1-768x993.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/F1-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/cpps.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/F1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>These were two enriching days of experience, reflection, prayer, and intensive learning.
