| World-wide Marian Mission |
The World-wide
Marian Mission is a work of great breath.
We could say that this mission, to live “in Mary” to fully live “in Christ”,
is the deepest vocation in the Church, while it has been calling to realize the
Kingdom of Jesus Christ on the earth..
In that way, you should not be considered it “a novelty", but an everything one with its “good news”, the Gospel , that is Jesus Christ, only savior of the men , only divine novelty for everybody.
When, however, this "endless novelty" becames also “method” and ”privileged way” to reach Jesus, then we call it again ....”novelty”, because unfortunately many people don't know it as really is. So,if practical methods of a more intimate approach and involvement are realized, then the“way” of Mary to Jesus becomes brighter and bearer of grace, more abundant for everybody: for all of us, for the Church and even for the world.
World-wide
Marian Mission, in the amplest sense, is
the divine mission thought
and wanted by the Holy Trinity in
Mary's
respects, in relationship both to the creation
that to the redemption, through the
incarnation of the Verb, Jesus, her divine Son. It's the Mission that God has
given to Mary.
Whoever enters in this ”marian”plan
of God, is more near to Jesus Chist and, therefore, to the Kingdom of God. Some
people live this vocation and this prophesy in more alive way. These people are
kept to valorize their particular marian grace and to communicate it to others
as a bright charism.
All those people who have received
this “marian” gift must not
only share it but also must find together themselves, always looking for a
greater coordination of preyer, informations and
initiatives.
This coordination
is the World-wide Marian Mission, to wich -
the single ones and the istitutions - can and must partecipate. The coordination
doesen't need particular“connections” ;
it's however, a deep agreement
of love to Mary, so all of this that can let Her known and more loved,is
immediately shared, diffused, proposed, so that Her cames anywhere, bringing
Jesus, The God. This is for us the World-wide Marian Mission
!
Inside the ample World-wide
Marian Mission, is proposed and lived a lot of various initiatives.
We particulary, propose
a World-wide Marian Mission, as
initiative of promotion of Mary's Spirit because every Christians and all the
Church identify themselves with Her life and Her Immaculate Heart.
To get this ”accelleration” in
“marian” holiness, with the only
principal purpose to promote the Kingdom of Jesus in the souls, we insist more
and more for one deeper consecration - of
the single ones and of the collectivities -
to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
This is its divine mission: Marian
Mission in the souls and in the world.
In relationship to us, this work
becomes marian “missionariety" ,that
is vocation, explicit call,
to announce Her as first missionary of Jesus Christ..
Some privileged ones,that more felt that marian
missionariety, have to favor it and to promote both in themselves
and in the others, letting themselves conduct from particular inspirations of
the Holy Spirit, that wants “to form” Mary in the
hearts, because were "formed" perfectly in them, Jesus.
Endless are the streets of the Holy
Spirit to bring Jesus; only is the best way (cfr Cc 6,9):
the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The work of the
World-wide M a r i a n M ission
is
great.
Nevertheless in its graduality of
realization ,we propose to flourish the “Marian
Mission” to all the levels. In more specific way,then, we
propose a passionate World-wide Marian Mission
sustained by all the Franciscan
Friars of the world, following a first model,
already lived in 35 nations (then in preparation to the 2000
Great Jubilee!) with the World-wide
“Peregrinatio Mariae”.
To this purpose it was already
prepared from us a book as a practical manual by the title :
“The true secret of Fatima”
In it, it was affirmed that the true secret of
high Christian spirituality, thin to identify in Mary, it's to devote
to Mary.
Various synthetic
catecheses and schemes
of marian day are
insert in the various pages of the book to permit that the work
of Mary establishes in all the heart.
This
method practically, includes always, every
day and for every category of
persons, an act of consacration to
the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The
marian method followed in every nation and every people where Mary has come with
her World-wide“Peregrinatio Mariae”
( March 8th 1998 - Christmas 1999).
We can say that, effecting and living
the consecration to Mary, from Herself asked in Fatima,the triumph in the hearts
of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is realized.
We introduce you the frontispiece of
the book “The true secret of Fatima” :
