Lectio Brevis (Opening of the Academic Year)

In San Rafael – Argentina

Monday, March 5th, in the Major House of Formation “Mary, Mother of the Incarnate Word”, we had the acts for the inauguration of the academic year.  First of all Father Santiago Vidal, IVE gave the Lectio Brevis (short conference) on the mystery of the Incarnate Word as the hermeneutical key to the Second Vatican Council, according to the teaching of Saint John Paul II.  Afterward we had the Inaugural Holy Mass with all of the formation houses of the Religious family in San Rafael.  Finally, in the afternoon we had the blessing of the entire “Finca”, our house, imploring God for abundant graces and blessings for this year that is beginning.

In Brazil

Monday, March 12th we had the “lectio brevis”, a ceremony that marks the beginning of the academic year in our houses of formation.  In the morning F. Emilio Rossi gave a talk on “Quixotism and the loss of being,” underlining the importance of the study of a philosophy of being and of true freedom, one that works and “bites” reality.  One that, at the same time, evangelically, allows us to know the modern world, which we must transform for GOD.

Shortly after, everyone gathered for the Holy Mass, asking for the fruits of this new year of studies.  During the celebration, the professors of the seminary made their profession of faith and their oath of fidelity.

In the afternoon we had the traditional blessing of the houses with the pray and exorcism of Leo XIII.

Apostolic Days in Ecuador

The first academic activity of our novitiate was to hold “Apostolic days”.  For this activity we dedicate two days to intense study and presentations on the various apostolates of our institute.  The objective of the days is to provide an introduction so that the novices can know special way that our religious community carries out pastoral work, whether it be the vocational apostolate, oratory, catechesis, spiritual exercises, popular missions, etc.  In this way, by knowing our congregation better, they will be able to love her more.

Oratories

In the Humanities School Alfredo Bufano, San Rafael (Argentina)

This Saturday we began the oratory with the children from the primary level of our Institute.  We shared some pictures with them, and invited them to join us in praying to Don Bosco, the founder of the oratories, asking him that it may be a fruitful year for the children, since he would say, “the happiness of nations depends on the wholesome education of the youth.”

Anniversaries in the Far East

We have received many graces during the month of March, for which we give thanks to God!  Our mission in Taiwan celebrated 22 years since its foundation on the 12th of March.  On the 19th is the 30th anniversary of our Institute, Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matara.  Our mission in Hong Kong will celebrate its 10th anniversary on that same day.  We would like to thank God for the abundant blessings he has given us. Thanks to the support of many bishops, priests, friends and benefactors, we have been able to begin and continue our mission here in Asia.  May the Lord grant us holy vocations in order to bring more souls to Christ and Christ to souls!
