Message from SI Leadership
Dear Serrans,
In recently attending the Serra International Convention in New Orleans, I was impressed by the numbers of people attending from the UK, Nigeria, Australia, the Philippines, Italy, USA, Canada and more, and realized once again how truly international the Serra organization is! We learned about the tremendous amount of work that is being done to reinvigorate some Councils and about the wonderful work of the Membership committee in its attempts to form new ones. It is a great honor to be involved in such a movement, and I look forward to working with the Serra International Board to further its forward-looking momentum.
A newly received letter from the Dicastery for the Clergy formally recognizes Serra and its mission. The Prefect, Cardinal Lazzaro You Heung-sik, invokes God’s blessing on Serra, its members and mission, and “…entrusts its furtherance to the Blessed Virgin Mary.” This significant letter will add to our momentum, inspiring more people to be part of our organization and assuring Bishops that Serra Clubs are needed in every diocese! This special recognition from the Dicastery will become an important tool for developing our strategic plan.
I believe we are in a period of growth in Serra…
