BRAZIL, Sister M. Nilza P. da Silva. An atmosphere of joy, commitment, prayer and of reflection to discover the plan of God for the mission with the Apostolic League of families reigned in the encounter of leaders of the region of Sao Paulo on March 10th and 11th. Thirty couples, who came from four states of the country, stayed in House Schoenstatt – Tabor in Atibaia, Sao Paulo to reflect on the mission of the Apostolic League of the Family Work, whose ideal is "Schoenstatt Living Shrines". Arnaldo and Maria Clara S. Maior, from Rio de Janeiro, coordinated the study sessions and reflections along with Sister M. Tersila Prates and Father Pedro Cabello. Enthusiasm was reflected on the faces of the participants, for being chosen ones of the Mother and Queen of Schoenstatt to share the joy with which she lives in her family of Nazareth. To be chosen comes from grace, of higher demands, that are necessary to conquer lasting joys and to build a new society through holy families. The ideal and the mission of the Apostolic League of the Family WorkThis ideal and mission is the star with which the Blessed Mother enlightens us in all situations. It is a divine mission, which gives the strength to be faithful in the marriage and in the family, and it gives the joy of being witnesses in the world of work, of parish life and in all the areas in which they live. Three points were formulated to clarify the mission of the Apostolic League of the Family work:
Each leader couple carries out their apostolic task with the originality of their place of residence. Throughout the year they will gather more experiences so that this mission, for which everyone is striving in practice, will be more clearly profiled. Translation: Celina Garza, Harlingen, TX, USA
