Towards a New Beginning

The latest edition of the FMS Message (April 2016) presents the life of the Marist Institute from the perspective of the three years of preparation for the bicentenary of his birth.
It highlighted the three icons (Montagne, Fourvière and La Valla), linking them to the architectural structure of the house where the Institute was born (the three-story house of La Valla) and the Marian icons presented by Brother Emili in the circular of 2012 (the Visitation, Pentecost and the Annunciation).
The first chapter in this issue is on the mission (Montagne, the top floor of La Valla and the Visitation), the second chapter on communion (Fourvière, the ground floor of La Valla and Pentecost) and the third on spirituality (La Valla, the basement of La Valla and the Annunciation).
The idea was to present examples of life, taken from the different Marist moments of everyday life, which are emblematic and serve as a stimulus for a new beginning.
We wanted to create a mosaic that reveals the new beginning that is already emerging in our lives.
