laetitia crucis Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 (edited) Okay, last link -- promise! (Maybe... ) I found this to be a MOST EXCELLENT video about the foundation of the Friars, their charism, their life, etc. It's an "oldie but a goodie". [url="http://www.marymediatrix-resourceonline.com/multimedia/ffi_dsl.ram"]Rebuilding the Church for Jesus Through Mary -- 14:23[/url] (N.B. -- opens in Real Player.) Both the Friars and the Sisters are considered "twin" Orders/communities. Also, there are a couple of PMers that have entered the Friars; one (I believe) is still a postulant. Another is a novice and he posts here sometimes. And another Friar recently joined PM: [url="http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/index.php?showuser=10400"]Friar Roderic[/url] (aka "[url="http://airmaria.com/category/air-maria-shows/roving-reporter/"]The Roving Reporter[/url]").
