On November 7, 2026, the Guides of National Brazil Center 1 from the Brazil Central Zone gathered to commemorate 25 years of the Communion and Service Group \u2018Buen Pastor\u2019. It was a time to thank God for a journey built by many hands, many hearts, and, above all, much love. It’s 25 years of presence, prayer, visits, listening, shared tears, and hope brought to many brothers and sisters.<\/p>\n
How many homes were visited! How many hospitals! How many hands were held, how many tears were welcomed, and how many prayers were offered!<\/p>\n
It was also a time to look back on our journey with gratitude and say: Lord, thank you for every Guide who says ‘Yes’ to service.<\/p>\n
Maria Eustaquia, National Brazil Center 1 Coordinating Guide, expressed herself this way:<\/p>\n
\u201cToday, our word is just: Thank you! Thank you to every Guide who offered their time, thank you to those who persevered. Thank you to those who served even when it was difficult. Thank you to those who arrived first and paved the way for so many others. Thank you to everyone who, in different ways, helped build this story. And above all, thank God, who has sustained us throughout these 25 years. Congratulations to the Guides of the Communion and Service Group \u2018Buen Pastor\u2019 for their 25 years!<\/p>\n
May God bless each one of you and all those who were touched by this service.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Coordinating Guide of the Brazil Central Zone, Mar\u00eda Aparecida de Faria Grossi, a member of another Communion and Service Group \u2018Familia de Nazaret\u2019 (Family of Nazareth) in the same city of Belo Horizonte, who was present, said:<\/p>\n
“May the example of this group be followed by other Guides from all the Zones of the world, so that this service continues to grow and flourish even more, as was Father Ignacio\u2019s wish.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
