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.

The Heralds of the Gospel at the Eucharistic Congress

Dear Friends
 
We prayed for you there.
We were very pleased to be at the 50th International Eucharistic Congress in Dublin which was a very successful event. 

I thought I could send you this quote from The Irish Independent for your entertainment.

God bless
Deacon Arthur, EP
Heralds of the Gospel 

"Also soaking up the atmosphere were Deacon Arthur from France and Brother Michael from Portugal who were sporting the colourful robes of the Heralds of the Gospel -- the Brazil-based apostolic association is in over 40 countries.

"This is a very important event, and the choice of Ireland was wonderful, it sends out a very good message to this country's Catholics," said Deacon Arthur.

"There's a very nice atmosphere here, which is welcome as many people are so depressed spiritually and economically," added a cheerful Br Michael."
