Wisma Claretian Yogyakarta. Sebanyak enam belas Frater (Tingkat I dan II) Komunitas Wisma Skolastikat Claretian Yogyakarta (WSCY) mengikuti kursus Public Speaking. Kegiatan ini merupakan salah satu program komunitas guna mengisi waktu liburan sekaligus memberi bekal kepada para misionaris muda agar semakin menjadi pribadi yang bernadi misionaris dalam jejak Bapa Pendiri, St Antonius Maria Claret, sebagai pelayan Sabda yang ideal. Kursus ini berlangsung selama lima hari, yakni dari tanggal 20-24 Januari 2020, dipandu oleh tiga tutor yang sangat handal dalam bidang public speaking. Mereka adalah; Ibu Rishe Purnama Dewi, S. Pd, M. Hum (Ibu Rise), Ibu Septiana Krismawati, S.S., M.A (Ibu Septi) dan Ibu Ekaresta Prihardjati Saputro, S.Pd., M.Pd.(Ibu Esta). Ketiganya merupakan Tim PBSI, FKIP, Universitas Sanata Dharma, Yogyakarta.
Dalam kegiatan ini, para misionaris muda disuguhkan berbagai materi dan praktek menjadi seorang public speaker yang baik khususnya sebagai seorang misionaris pelayan Sabda. Mulai dari materi yang paling dasar, yakni tentang pengolahan vokal, intonasi, pelafalan, artikulasi, penampilan, penguasaan umat atau audience hingga pada praktek menjadi seorang public speaker yang kreatif. Selain itu dalam berkotbah para frater diajak untuk belajar bagaimana menghadapi situasi audience yang beraneka ragam, bahkan bagaimana cara mengatasi tindakan atau prilaku audience atau umat yang di luar ekspetasi.
Di penghujung kegiatan ini para misionaris muda diberi kesempatan berkotbah dengan menerapkan semua materi yang telah diperoleh. Setiap frater dituntut sekreatif mungkin menggunakan media atau sarana yang ada sesuai dengan tema dan konteksnya masing-masing. Dalam hal ini, tema dan konteks dalam renungan yang dibawakan dalam berkotbah tidaklah sama, konteksnya berbeda antara satu dengan yang lain. Hal ini tentu tidak sekedar sebagai pengujian atau penilaian atas semua materi yang telah diperoleh, tetapi lebih dari pada itu kesempatan berkotbah ini merupakan suatu rahmat yang amat berharga bagi kami. Mengapa? Karena dalam kesempatan ini kami belajar bagaimana rasanya berdiri di depan orang banyak. Lebih dari itu, setiap kami merasa termotivasi untuk menjadi misionaris sejati, di saat sekarang dan di masa depan. (Fr. Rofinus Hadu, CMF)
Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Kamis, 24 Oktober 2019, perasaan sukacita menyelimuti suasana hati setiap anggota Kongregasi Putra-Putra Hati Tak Bernoda Maria (CMF), khususnya Komunitas Wisma Skolastikat Claretian Yogyakarta. Bersamaan dengan Pesta Bapa Pendiri, St. Antonius Maria Claret, komunitas juga merayakan misa pengikraran kaul kekal religius dari ketujuh misionaris muda, Fr. Aloysius Etwino Ganti, CMF, Fr.

Dengan langkah yang pasti dan suara yang lantang mereka mengikrarkan kesetiaan terhadap Yesus Kristus, Gereja, dan Kongregasi. “Demikian saya mengaulkan kepada Allah, Kemurnian, Kemiskinan, dan Ketaatan untuk selama-lamanya, dan saya melibatkan diri untuk hidup dalam komunitas kehidupan kerasulan dari kongregasi”.
Pater Yohanes Maria Vianey Lusi Emi, CMF, Superior Delegatus CMF Indonesia-Timor Leste sekaligus selebran dalam Perayaan Ekaristi ini mengajak kauliawan dan umat semuanya untuk belajar dari kisah hidup Ayub. Dalam homilinya Pater Vianey mengatakan, “dengan yakin Ayub berkata, sekarang mataku sendiri memandang Engkau, senada dengan Ayub, saya mau bertanya kepada para kauliawan, Apakah para saudara secara personal telah melihat atau memandang Sang Guru, Yesus Kristus?”. Memandang Yesus, mengandaikan seseorang telah mampu hidup dalam kedalaman spiritual. Pertanyaan Pater Vianey, sekiranya menjadi penggugah perefleksian para kauliawan, juga para umat yang hadir dalam perayaan sukacita tersebut.
Di akhir perayaan Ekaristi, Pater Vianey sebagai Superior Delegatus Kongregasi Claretian Indonesia-Timor Leste, mengumumkan tempat perutusan ketujuh kauliawan. Fr.

Jogjakarta, Wisma Scholastic of Claretian Jogjakarta Community again held a semesteral seminar on Sunday, May 26. In that moment, the seminar took the title Missiological Forum. And the theme that raised in that moment was “Missionary in the Context of Indonesia (A Missiological Reflection on the Message of Pope Francis in Order to Commemorate 100 years of Apostolic Letter Maximum Illud)”.
The keynote speaker in this seminar was Fr. Pankratius Rehi Kandelu, CMF, M.A. Miss and moderated by Stu. Theobaldus Deni, CMF.
Fr. Pank opened this seminar with talked about what is mission. For him, the important thing in every mission carried out by missionaries should be inspired by Jesus Christ. The existence of Jesus is a central point in every step of the mission in the world.
“The mission of Jesus is a starting point in our mission”, he said.
Fr. Pank reiterated the importance of the mission centered on Jesus, which is based on the Word of God. A missionary is very much required to mission not for himself, but the proclamation of God in the midst of the world. So, what is proclaimed is God in Jesus Christ.
“If the Word of God becomes the basis of the mission then what is proclaimed in the mission is God in Jesus Christ,” he explained.
Furthermore, the priest who was born in Sumba, May 12, 1974 explained the mission in Indonesia. He said that the mission in Indonesia was in the corridors of the context, namely plurality, politics, economics, education, health, and terrorism. In his observations, these contexts are real situations regarding the current state of Indonesia as a general description and become study material for current mission opportunities.
In his missiological reflection, Fr. Pank again added several themes that could serve as a basis for carrying out missions in the context of Indonesia. These themes include, first, the mission is testimony and preaching; second, the mission is justice, peace and the integrity of nature; third, the mission is interfaith dialogue; fourth, the mission is inculturation; and fifth, the mission is reconciliation.
“The mission gets meaning and meaning according to the context as well as answers to concrete situations,” he said.
For this reason, quoting Pope Francis’s message to the leaders of the congregation, Fr. Pank hoped that the quality of the missionaries would be improved in the future. Some of the things quoted from Pope Francis are important relationships with Jesus, learning from the testimonies of the saints and laity about the testimony of faith in the midst of mission, biblical formation, catechesis, spirituality and theology, and proclamation of God’s love.
To be a missionary means to be brave to take a risk and then send
everywhere. Tuesday (8/1), Community of Wisma Scholastic Claretian held up the
separation and go send (Perpisahan dan
Perutusan) with Father Dominikus Kabosu Tae, CMF. According to decision of
the council of delegation Independent Indonesia-Timor Leste, Fr. Domi will be a
superior in Tomok Parish.
This ceremony opened with the Holy Eucharist. And, this Eucharist was
presented by Fr. Domi.
With the theme, “Lower your Nets (Luke 5:4)” (Tebarkanlah Jalamu), Fr. Domi accepted this mission. Every mission
is a consequence of God’s knowledge about himself. “Maybe this mission happened
because God knows well my self”, he said.
In other place, Fr. Pankratius Rehi Kandelu, CMF, admitted really lost
a figure of papa in this community. Every memory of Fr. Domi will never
disappear. Fr. Pankras said that Fr. Domi always invite him to enjoy the break
time at 10 o’clock. “Every 10 o’clock my room’s door is knocked. (Father)
Pankras, let’s drink. And wait a moment, (Father) Paskal, let’s drink”, he
remained.
Existence of Fr. Domi in the Community of Jogjakarta so short. But all memories with Fr. Domi will never lost. Happy your vocation in the new mission place. God always with you.Mario F. Cole Putra, CMF
