The Enlarged General Council (EGC) has begun on Tuesday, 13 September 2016 in the General House of SSCC brothers on Via Rivarone, 85. It consists of the General Government and the 16 Major Superiors (Provincials and Vice Provincials) of the Congregation.

At 14:30 the meeting was opened with a prayer and a welcome by Javier Álvarez-Ossorio sscc, along with explanations for the smooth running of the meeting and the use of the house. Emperatriz Arrobo sscc, Superior General of the sisters, who participates in the CGA in full also gave a few words.
