Description
Bella Pastora
The sculpture of the Virgin of Bella Pastora de Iesu Comunio was born as a result of the commission received by the sculptor Javier Viver. The reason for the commission was the foundation of the new monastery for the sisters of the new community located in Aguilera. Mother Veronica, its foundress, is the one who commissioned a Virgin to be called the White Virgin or Bella Pastora.
The Bella Pastora is a life-size sculpture of the pregnant Virgin Mary. She is seated with her hands on her chest, her head slightly tilted forward, her eyes half-open, "vigilant and vigilant" as a mother always is.
The color white recalls how with the Eucharist, "life is filled with its hope, whiteness and whiteness". It is the resurrection of Christ in the creature that can raise us to live, recalls Mother Veronica in her meditation to La Bella Pastora.
The Bella Pastora of Iesu Communio represents two births, that of Iesu Communio and that of Jesus.
Iesu Communio is a female religious institute of pontifical right approved by the Apostolic See on December 8, 2010, the feast of the Immaculate Conception. Its founding mother is Sister Veronica.
In 1984, María José, at the age of 18 and with the name of Sister Verónica, entered the Poor Clare Community of Lerma. The young woman, who would be professed in 1990, attracted new and young vocations to the convent. Finally, she ended up forming a separate community with a clearly differentiated charism, which today we know as Iesu Communio.
The religious institute Iesu Communio is dedicated "to the evangelization of young people" and to the contemplative life.
