Presence and mission in the world

This book briefly describes the beauty of the Christian Journey of the Marist Family, seeking to cultivate the faith during the journey of those who are still flourishing in the face of oppressions and injustices in the contemporary world.

In reporting how the Marist Family was born, has grown and has multiplied, the book intends to awaken the faith of Lay readers, as well as to nourish the faith that inspires the journey of readers who are members – Fathers, Brothers, Sisters, Missionary Sisters – of different congregations from around the world.

In times of new evangelization for the transmission of faith and of the World Youth Day, this material will help all of us to understand a little bit more about the call to evangelize and give testimony nowadays, taking Mary as a model.

Even though the cultural, social and religious conditions of people from all over the world are new, the words of the founder of the Marist Society revisit Christ’s commandments, and at the same time challenge the members to give testimony, urging personal and community realization.

May the reader be blessed through the reading of this book and touched by the light of the Holy Spirit, accept in his/her heart the message of faith, bearing fruit in Christian actions.

(Fr. Alejandro Muñoz,  Sr. Apolina Ikauno, Sr. Bridget Brady, Br. João Carlos do Prado)
