We arrived in Eluru at 9:30am and we were warmly welcomed by Fr. Beppe and all the theologians. After a moment of relaxation we had the opportunity to attend a talk given by Sr. Mary, who came from a neighboring convent.
The talk was very useful and touching because of its theme on “holiness” and of its simple, practical and concretized presentation. The talk emphasized the personal openness, and emptiness required to be filled by the Spirit, and the generosity and readiness needed to be moulded and used as a holy man of God.
(During the talk, everyone participated in an exercise where they were provided with a small amount of dough, along with a stone of the same size. We were asked to shape the objects into any possible forms. We went around shaping them and were back in a short time with our own results. Each one had his own interesting form of dough, while the stone was unshaped. The exercise was then compared to personal generosity and readiness to be moulded into any form when we are pliable like the dough, and not hard like the stone.) 
The talk was followed by Holy Mass, celebrated by Fr. Beppe, where each of us was invited to offer to the Lord our own formed objects along with a personal prayer. At 1:00pm we had a delicious meal together with the community. After the meal we had a short visit to the Vijnananilayam Institute of Philosophy and Theology, at Vijnanpeta, where our brothers study their theology. At 4:00pm we had our tea and were given a good farewell by the community.
Besides the new sight, happy experiences, and the talk, what inspired me was the joyful and peaceful life of our brothers in a small house, having to make a lot of adjustments, and the sharing that went on by all the community members. I could learn from them a good example of religious life; ready and happy to adapt to any conditions, regardless of any adjustments in such simple and difficult accommodations. Their life example gives us much hope and strength to be ready for anything in our journey of vocation. They should be admired for living in such a poor condition in peace and happiness. I thank God, and Fr. Sebastian, for this wonderful visit to our community in Eluru, which will be an unforgettable experience.
