"Adveniat Day" at our Assumptionist Center in Boston, MA is a time of orientation and fraternal sharing at the start of each academic year. We are blessed with a wonderful group of residents who live, pray, and study alongside our Assumptionist brothers.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We are all in the same boat and called to work together so that there will be no more walls that separate us, no longer others, but only a single “we”, encompassing all of humanity. https://t.co/7ffKi9dzYG

"After God, the most important closeness is to the people of God... Do not forget where you came from: of your family, of your people... Do not lose the sense of the people of God...“remember those who introduced you to the faith.” Priests of the people." -Pope Francis

"This isn't a career. It's a service," #PopeFrancis tells 9 men about to be ordained priests for the Diocese of Rome.

"God does not like to reveal himself in a spectacular way, pressuring our freedom. He does not overwhelm us with dazzling visions but quietly speaks in the depths of our heart... as he did with Saint Joseph, he sets before us profound and unexpected horizons." -Pope Francis

[Assumptionists Vocations (United States) @AAVocationsUSA]

O God, stir within us a commitment of solidarity that by our lives and through our actions we will transform unjust structures that cause marginalization and oppression. May this Easter Triduum compel us to radiate evermore Your transformative love in the world! #Christianity

[Assumptionists Vocations (United States) @AAVocationsUSA]

God, you reveal the power and radicalism of love. Compel our hearts to recognize you in all human suffering and not remain indifferent to the injustices experienced by our neighbor. #EasterTriduum

[Assumptionists Vocations (United States) @AAVocationsUSA]

O God, you who show us the way of love, strip us of our interior resistance and clothe us with your light, help us to become more authentic: ready to abandon the weapons of hypocrisy so that we may be the reflection of your glory in the world.

“...for the grandeur of life lies not in possessions and promotions, but in realizing that we are loved. This is the grandeur of life: discovering that we are loved.”

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

To be blessed, we do not need to become occasional heroes, but witnesses day after day. Witness is the way to embody the wisdom of Jesus. That is how the world is changed: not by power and might, but by the Beatitudes. #ApostolicJourney #Iraq

Lent attempts to take us away from an obsession with the self, putting back on our radar that which matters most: love for God, for others, and love for the earth/other non-human-creatures. For us to be true Christians, we must match our creed with deed.
-Br.Matthew Mary okereke

[Assumptionists Vocations (United States) @AAVocationsUSA]

Let us ask ourselves: How are we handling our own little Chairs of authority?Are we truly serving others? Are we sincerely serving one another in the functions we carry out or do we use our functions to lord it over others?” Br.Matthew-Mary Okereke #Service #ChairofStPeter #Unity

A moving conversation with Luis Argueta on Migration, Vocation & Justice. Our Assumptionist charism compels us to “go wherever humanity is threatened as the image of God.” Our mission in El Paso,TX commits to encounter, serve, and uphold the dignity of migrants. #Vocation

[Assumptionists Vocations (United States) @AAVocationsUSA]

“Lent is a journey that involves our whole life, our entire being. It is a time to reconsider the path we are taking... Lent is not just not about the little sacrifices we make, but about discerning where our hearts are directed.” -Pope Francis

Agape: a Greek word for selfless, sacrificial, unconditional love that seeks nothing in return!
