come and journey with me

Today there is much talk of prayer; a sincere search for spirituality is evident .

A search of a meaning of God, a certain inclination to “Mystery”, a Face-to-Face encounter. A longing for God.

In search of horizon, of importance, many get lost in appearances or wander without finding a response. They end up fatigued or unsatisfied, fed up and thirsty as before.

In many occasions these searches are wavering, spontaneous, many things are speculated about God, but we do not get to know and experience Him.

In that context the necessity of having a companion for the journey surges , someone with courage to stretch out a hand, that offers their littleness, that shares life, that walks in faith.

Someone full of humaneness and capable of “divinity.”

In the passage of Emmaus we find traces that could help us see our being companions of the journey in the Company of Mary: And it happened that while they were conversing and debating, Jesus himself drew near and walked with them… It is about taking advantage of the occasions that life offers.

You as young people have great aspirations, that you want to pledge yourselves to build a better world. Let others see this, let the world see it, since this is exactly the witness that the world expects from the disciples of Jesus . Pope Benedict XVI

ACCOMPANY EACH OTHER FACE TO FACE AND BREAK THE BREAD

To accompany is to take on a challenge, take a mission, begin an adventure, contemplate a mystery, listen to a beat, pronounce a hope, probe a heart, witness a miracle.

ACCOMPANY TO EMBRACE WHAT’S HUMAN Companionship is simply putting on your shoes and at its rhythm deciphering one by one the mysteries of the human heart…

ACCOMPANY TO DECIPHER THE BEAUTY AND REMAIN WITH THE GOOD To accompany is to Break bonds and cross borders. Contemplate at each other, Harbor the beauty, Take delight in the good, and Opt for the good.

… always attentive to embody the dreams of God for humanity and self, not only saw the youth without horizons, she found herself present with them, and asked: What can I do for you? These invitations echoed in the heart of St. Jeanne 400 years ago.

400 years ago in Bordeaux did Jeanne de Lestonnac know that the work that she began would reach out to many lands, to many young people in many nations .
