First Get-Together in Valencia!Posted in FEBRUARY 2010 on March 01, 2010 by Administrator On Saturday, February 20, Fr. Rafael and the Servant Sisters had the first get-together of the Home of the Mother in Valencia, Spain. There, waiting for us, were the lay members of the Home in Valencia and from other parts of Spain, to begin the Home in Valencia.
We gathered together in Our Lady of Sorrows Parish at 12 and we watched the Presentation Video of the Home of the Mother. There were several new people there who didn't know of the Home, and the Presentation Video helped to give them a general idea of what the Home is. We had a brief meeting afterwards, in which we spoke of the Home, our missions, and our activities. After lunch, we watched a few videos produced by HM Television and discussed them afterwards.

God Continues to Speak Amidst the Silence...Posted in FEBRUARY 2010 on February 18, 2010 by Administrator

It was held at the “Mount Carmel” Retreat Center, located adjacent to the Convent belonging to the Carmelites of the Divine Heart of Jesus, in San Marcos, Nicaragua. Servant Brothers in Rome go on a PilgrimagePosted in FEBRUARY 2010 on February 16, 2010 by Administrator
We, the Servant Brothers in Rome, are in awe! It is so great to be able to study in the Heart of the Church! Every day, we are able to see that the Church encompasses every continent, as many of our companions at the university are from all over the world. Also, we are able to listen to the Pope. He has given all of us, the entire Church a Year in which to meditate on a beautiful vocation: “How great is the priest. If he realized this, he would die. God obeys him: he utters a few words and the Lord descends from heaven at his voice, to be contained within a small host.” (Benedict XVI, quoting the Cure of Ars) Such a close intimacy with God requires that the priest renounce any kind of protagonism, and to the degree in which we decrease, Jesus can shine forth. This is what we are called to live! Fr. Rafael Baptizes Pablo TridentePosted in FEBRUARY 2010 on February 12, 2010 by Administrator
