continue to journey towards the General Assembly in July. Our General Moderator, Caterina Fava sent the following message:Dearest Ones,
We give thanks to the Lord for the gift of fidelity that once again we renew today, May 1st, the Feast of our Covenant with the Lord. The Lord loves us infinitely and asks us to choose Him with our whole lives.
How could we say no to Christ the Lord Who became man for us, entered into the limitations of time and space, unceasingly announced the word of everlasting life, became a neighbor to every man and woman up to His death and resurrection in order to make us experience the passionate love of the Father Who is always ready to welcome us as we are? Dearest ones, let us once again renew our yes to the Lord, yes to the gift of life, yes to the grace of Baptism that made us children of God, yes to the call to holiness and brotherhood, yes to the Pro Sanctity Apostolate, yes to the Apostolic Oblation.
Let us ask the Lord to make us faithful in the journey we have already begun, and let us entrust our Pro Sanctity family to Him.
In a very special way we want to pray for and wish the best to Monica who today starts her journey of formation as an Aspirant Apostolic Oblate. For you, Monica, we ask the Lord to make you holy and help you fall ever deeper in love with Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Always
turn your gaze and your heart toward Him to live ever more intimately united to your Savior.Jesus has chosen you and has had a love of predilection for you. He looked at your availability and wanted you to be His so that you might give yourself unconditionally to Him and to your brothers and sisters. Search always for communion with Him, contemplate and adore Him, let yourself be assimilated by Him so to be a witness of maximum love for those you meet on your journey.
To all of you who participate in this celebration: through the intercession of our Founder may the Lord grant the gifts of the Holy Spirit so that you may be authentic witnesses of holiness and live the high measure of Christian life in order to be a sign of contradiction in today’s world.
We are close to you with our prayer and affection.
Caterina and the General Counsel
