Argentina

A brief history of the Mothers’ Federation of Argentina:

The Mothers’ Federation of Argentina was founded on April 12, 1988 when Father Antonio Cosp sent the letter of admission to the first course. It was born from a group of mothers from the province of Mendoza; at the request of Sr. Regina, soon other courses were born in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Salta, San Juan, Chaco, Corrientes, Tucumán, Santa Fe and Entre Ríos.
At present, we have 31 courses, 24 with perpetual consecration, and 5 groups of aspirants.

We are an autonomous community with our own leadership and governed by our constitution.

We are wives, women, and mothers who aspire to the highest degree of holiness through a free and magnanimous effort; as instruments in the hands of the beloved Mother of God, we want to collaborate with the mission of our father and founder for the religious-moral renewal of the world in Christ.

Shortening distances in virtual mode

From the year 2011 we began to implement the virtual modality in the pedagogical curriculum to give the possibility to the formation of courses for young mothers who do not live in the same province, at this moment we have several courses that take advantage of this modality when the circumstances prevent them to meet in person.

We form a large territory, very extensive in terms of distance, so we organize ourselves into regions so that all the mothers can participate in a relatively comfortable way in the life of the group in the official community. We have four regions: R. Cuyo, R. Mediterránea, R. Metropolitana norte, R. Metropolitana centro sur, and an area we call Litoral that with the passing of time we hope can become a region.

Our territorial ideal is “Faithful daughter, heart and soul, burn for the mission of the Father”

An ideal that we share with the territory of Paraguay since we have walked together as a single territory since 1995 until the year 2022 when Paraguay was constituted as an autonomous territory.

Adoration Circle of the Mothers’ Federation

On Thursday, March 2, 2006, the Adoration Circle of the Mothers’ Federation was officially constituted. The constitution of the Circle took place with the celebration of the Holy Mass in the Shrine of Confidencia, presided by Father Javier Arteaga, with the presence of Sister Mariela and Inés Podestá, who was at that time the Territorial leader, who took the commitment of the mothers to have Adoration, forming part of the Circle.

The goal of the Adoration circle is to be, in Covenant of Love with the MTA and united to the Father and Founder, the prayerful, adoring heart of our Community.


Forums and Bridges that unite us

Forums

With the goal of keeping us updated and in contact at a territorial level, we hold forums where we discuss topics of interest for our mothers.

Bridges

Every four years we hold a meeting of Course Mothers which we call The Bridge, and on that occasion, we took the photo I am sharing with you…
