Superior General with Pope Francis
Superior General
My beloved Confreres, On this sacred day of Maundy Thursday, we are once again drawn into the heart of our priestly and missionary calling—a calling rooted in the Eucharist and humble service. Let us remind ourselves of three things: 1. Jesus redefines greatness 2. Availability for others is a prophetic act 3. “This is my body” is an affirmation of my readiness to be broken and shared On this day, Jesus knelt before His disciples and washed their feet. In doing so, Jesus redefined greatness—not as power or prestige, but as humble service. He made Himself radically available—for the Father’s will and for each of us. His availability was not mere presence but a profound readiness to give, to serve, and ultimately, to lay down His life. In a world increasingly shaped by individualism and busyness, availability becomes a prophetic act. It is in the interruptions, the unplanned moments, and the quiet needs of our brothers and sisters that we often find our true mission. Are we present to those around us? Do we listen with our hearts? Do we, like Jesus, bend low in humility and compassion? As Missionaries of St. Francis de Sales, we are invited to walk in that same spirit—defined not only by mission and ministry but also by the simple, daily decision to make ourselves available for others.
