ABOUT THE CONSECRATED PERSONS:
"Belonging to the Lord means to be on fire with his incandescent love, to be transformed into the splendour of his beauty:  our littleness is offered to him as a sacrifice of sweet fragrance so that it becomes a witness of the greatness of his presence for our epoch, which has great need to be inebriated by the richness of his grace.

Belonging to the Lord:  this is the mission of the men and women who have chosen to follow Christ - chaste, poor and obedient - so that the world may believe and be saved. To belong completely to Christ so as to become a permanent confession of faith, an unequivocal proclamation of truth that frees us from the seduction of the false idols that deceive the world.

To belong to Christ means to keep the flame of love always burning in our heart, continually fed by the richness of faith, not only when this brings with it interior joy but also when it is joined to difficulty, aridity and suffering".

As we begin the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, we wish to invite you to join us for this important celebration. This year’s theme and scripture passages have been chosen with the main theme being "Do good; seek justice" (Isahah 1:17). Called as children of one God, we will meet and pray for Christian unity.

How can we live our unity as Christians in order to respond to the ills and injustices of our time? How can we engage in dialogue, increase awareness, understanding and insight into each other's experiences?
