Mozambique: mother of divine love kindergarten

31/8/2018

0 Comments

 
“Actions are the true proof of love. The true proof of love is the performing of deeds.”
St. Vincent Pallotti
 
As it is so unjustly the case, what many take for granted are the dreams of others. Such is the story of the Mother of Divine Love Kindergarten, opened by the Congregation of the Sisters of the Catholic Apostolate.
 
Located in Inharrime, its opening meets the humble appeals of the families that live there, who have hoped for a school and safe place to place their children during the day. In 2004, the response was first simple; a room in the Sisters’ house of formation.
 
But in 2012, they took a significant step and began a program with 25 children. Quickly seeing that the demand was greater than the space, the plunge of confidence into the depth was taken; they began to build a kindergarten. Through Divine Providence, funds became available to build it.
 
The Pallottine education seeks both the formation and integral promotion of the human being. Its founding principles are unity, charity, cooperation, development of critical spirit, initiative, responsibility, and Christian and scientific formation.
 
With the little ones, they seek to promote the integral development of the child, created in the image and likeness of God, helping to develop his social, physical, cognitive, emotional and spiritual capacities.
 
Pre-school education in Mozambique is not part of the state education system; it is a private initiative, especially of the Catholic missions.
 
It is vital for all children to attend preschool, because it is very important for their socialization and integral development. Thus, we are especially concerned about poor children, whose families cannot afford the monthly amount necessary to cover operating expenses.
 
But as we continue to pray and grow, we remember that if it is truly a project in service of God and His people, our Good Lord will provide all of the necessary graces.

Fr. General Jacob's Most Recent Bulletin 

 "It is easy to lose hope when young people find themselves alone and facing what seems like impossible challenges. In the darkest moments in my childhood, it was easy to be tempted to give up. As famine and ethnic war grips South Sudan, I cry for the children who are being robbed of their childhood. But I know the strength of the people and pray that the global community can come together and recognize this critical time to give hope to young people yearning for a different future." - Lopez Lomong

Poland: Pallottine School of New Evangelization

1/8/2018

0 Comments

 
By: Fr. Krzysztof Kralka SAC 
 
St. Vincent Pallotti’s wish was to awaken apostolic vocations among all states of the Church, so that all would know God’s Infinite Love. We need not only those who preach the Gospel in Church, but due to the world’s increasing secularization, we need a host of formators who will be able to teach others how to preach Jesus in an ever-changing world.
 
The Pallottine School of the New Evangelization, which was officially established on June 16, 2011, tries to fulfill Pallotti’s desires and responds to the call of St. John Paul II to take up the New Evangelization. The school was initiated by Fr. Krzysztof Kralka SAC at the Pallottine Seminary in Oltarzew in 2007. In the first phase of its existence, the environment gathered Pallottine seminarians and a few lay people who had the experience of participating in evangelization courses and working in teams conducting courses.
 
When Fr. Krzysztof Kralka SAC came to Lublin, he began the formation of new people and entire communities willing to create the School of New Evangelization; during which more than 2,000 people were formed for evangelization.
 
The basic tool of the work of the Pallottine School of New Evangelization ins the Pastoral Program of St. Andrew created in Mexico by H. Prado Flores. It presents the program of formation of evangelizers and formators of evangelizers divided in three stages:
  1. Basic: basis of Christian life (7 courses)
  2. Growth: preparation for the mission of evangelization (7 courses)
  3. Complementing: formation of formators (7 courses)
 
Activity of the School:
  1. Evangelization courses: led by formed evangelistic teams aim at undertaking of evangelization in their living environments and teach how to form new evangelizers. In each of the courses there are on average 50 people (priests, seminarians, nuns, lay people) and is run by a team of about 10 people (including priest, preachers, musicians, and other ministries run by people of different states). Every year, we organize around 100 such courses in various parts of Poland, in which approximately 5,000 people participate. From the start, we have also extablished two new schools for the diocese, and now are in the process of establishing another two. We run a formation in seminaries- training seminarians- and we conduct retreats for priests in dioceses and nuns.
  2. Community “Friends of Bridegroom”: it is an evangelizing movement with approximately 10,000 people. Through our own formation program, the Community forms apostles and formators of the evangelizers. The community works on the basis of multiplication, multiplying the communities in the Church. We strive to establish an evangelizing community in every parish. At present, there are 110 communities in Poland, England and Germany which gather Poles, but the purpose of foreign communities is to evangelize the inhabitants of these countries. Together with the teams, we conduct retreats and evangelization missions in the parishes.
  3. Holy Mass with prayer for healing: initiated by us in many cities across Poland, which bring together thousands of people
  4. Worship band: Named “Following Jesus,” it consists of about 35 musicians and vocalists, and have released a studio album
  5. Formation House for Men: At present, 3 Pallottines, 3 diocesan seminarians, and 5 young men are discerning their vocations
  6. Publications: With regards to evangelization, we have prepared CDs containing conferences and retreats, formation notebooks for communities and books on various religious topics
  7. The office coordinating all work: At present there are 8 employees, training in evangelization and setting up new communities
