apostolate — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 01:23:36 +0000

Homily #091211s ( 17min) Play – Fr. Angelo gives the homily for the vigil Mass for the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe which is a Solemnity here at Our Lady of Guadalupe Friary. He relates the story of St. Juan Diego and how Our Lady asks him to give a message to the bishop that she wants a chapel built on Tepiac Hill near the Aztec Capitol. He particulary relates how Our Lady wanted Juan Diego to become willing himself to accept the task. This is especially relavant in that today David Houseal will be entering Novitiate here at Our Lady of Guadalupe friary where he will be preparing to make religious vows that includes Consideration to Our Lady in this Missionary order of the FI. So on this joyous day and throughout the year, please keep David in your prayers as he prepares to be another Juan Diego. Oh, and his new religious name is Fra David Maria of St Joseph and and Bl. Elizabeth of the Holy Trinity or just Fra David for short.
Ave Maria! Mass readings

New Novices for the FI

Fra Roderic — Thu, 12 Sep 2019 01:39:19 +0000

Ave Maria! On Sunday, September 8th, Feast of the Birth of Our Lady, fourteen young men entered our novitiate with a ceremony at our friary in Casino, Italy. Deo Gratias!

They include three Americans: Alec Clark, Joseph Siebenmorgen, Joshua Massatt. I do not know the names of the rest, but they hail from West Africa, South America, and the Philippines.

The noviciate will be in our friary in Tarquinia, Italy, two hours north of Rome. The goal is to make first vows in September 2020. Keep them in your prayers.

We don’t know the exact event this picture shows if they are practicing for the choir or actually singing during the ceremony. We will let you know if we find out.
