I share my experience of traveling from Guatemala to Colombia to continue God’s plan in my life, in the stage of Postulancy, which I began on May 1, 2026.
From the day I learned the news, I felt great joy, but also much fear, because I never imagined that I would continue to the next stage of formation in another country. I believe this has been one of the many gifts that the Lord grants me.
From the moment I said goodbye to my family, my sisters in community, and my country, and boarded the plane, there was fear within me; but in my mind echoed the last words a sister said to me: “Do not be afraid, because wherever you go, Jesus and your sisters will be waiting for you.”
Those words filled me with hope and peace, because I trusted that the Lord would give me the strength to adapt and open myself to a new culture, learn from it, and grow both humanly and spiritually.
During these days that I have been in Colombia, everything has been a blessing, because through the patience and love of my sisters I have learned so much. I have also shared part of my culture and my gifts with each one of them.
There is no doubt that the Lord writes wonderful stories through crooked lines, for He has given me the opportunity to continue growing spiritually and humanly in this beautiful country, together with a wonderful community. And with His grace, I will take advantage of every moment to continue falling in love with Him and living out His Gospel.
“I have chosen you, I will sustain you.”
Isaiah 41,9
