In response to a Love!
Consecrated life, free gift of God for the Church and the world.
To be consecrated is to welcome the gratuity of the Lord with open arms.
Consecrated people, established in charity by the Lord, we are.
One day each of us felt the gaze of Jesus on her.
A penetrating gaze which does not leave indifferent and which provokes a strong decision of communion to remain with Him.
With a burning heart passionate about his love, a deep transformation takes place in us:
astonishment and wonder push us to nurture loving encounters with the Divine Master.
A quick and generous response springs from our hearts to Jesus’ invitation to follow him. This attachment to Christ set us in motion towards a Congregation, that of FCSCJ, which greatly opened its arms to each one to allow them to experience the “Come and See”.
Since then, our walk, individually and as a community, has taken root in a charism of charity, a spirituality of proximity and contemplation as transmitted by our Founders and our predecessors to awaken the world.
Celebrating the Lord’s fidelity and our joy to be with him, united to all FCSCJs and to all consecrated persons who give primacy to God in their lives, we want to give thanks for the communion between us and to revive our testimony of life, by still implanting in the world today, each in its own way, the gaze of Jesus, that of compassion and hope.
May the joy of the Lord dwell in our hearts.
