Totus Tuus - To Jesus through Mary.

To impel the beauty of the new evangelization – this is the charism of the Heralds of the Gospel; Its founder, Monsignor João Dias explains."The Heralds of the Gospel is a private association of faithful with a very special charism based essentially on three points: the Eucharist, Mary and the Pope."

The Heralds of the Gospel are an International Association of the Faithful of Pontifical Right, the first to be established by the Holy See in the third millennium, during a ceremony which occurred during the feast of the Chair of St. Peter (February 22) in 2001.

The Heralds of the Gospel strive to be instruments of holiness in the Church by encouraging close unity between faith and life, and working to evangelize particularly through art and culture. Their apostolate, which differs depending upon the environments in which they work, gives pride of place to parish animation, evangelizing families, providing catechetical and cultural formation to young people, and disseminating religious Iiterature.

Living As One - faith-sharing in Lent 2010

Lent 2010 from Catholic Westminster on Vimeo.


From the Diocese of Westminster's faith-sharing resource for Lent 2010:

"Living As One, the Diocese of Westminster's faith-sharing resource for Lent 2010 will focus on the Church, one and holy, catholic and apostolic and will be available in parishes from the beginning of February.

‘Last year,’ writes Archbishop Vincent Nichols in his foreword to the new Living As One faith-sharing booklet from the Diocese of Westminster, ‘many of us appreciated the opportunity which Your Kingdom Come gave for reflecting on the words of the “Our Father” and the effect such reflection may have on our approach to the whole question of justice, peace and the coming of God’s Kingdom.’ This Lent, from the 21 February to the 3 April, the group sessions and daily meditations in Living As One offer a similar opportunity.

Outline

Week One of our Lenten booklet will consider who it is that we are called to live in communion with. Then, having asked how we are to live in communion (Week Two), we will consider the underpinning of the Church’s unity exploring what is meant when we describe the Church as one and holy (Week Three), catholic (Week Four) and apostolic (Week Five). Finally, in Week Six, we will look to Mary, Mother of the Church and exemplary model of what it is to live in communion with God and man. "
