Ale Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Hi to everybody, I've got new pics! These are the [b]Little Brothers of Jesus Caritas [/b](piccoli fratelli di jesus caritas) a semi-monastic contemplative/active community founded in the charism of bl.Charles de Foucolud in Spello (Italy) in 1969 and recognized in 1997. The Little Brothers of the community «Jesus Caritas» consecrate their lives to the love of God and of all men, to the practice of evangelic counsel, to continuous prayer. The community lives and works in the local Church, in communion with the bishop, with the presbyters, deacons, and with all people of God.

Seraphim has read most of Fr. Philippe's works so he is able to guide my brother and understands the philosophy where my brother is coming from very well which is of course a huge blessing for him during this time of discernment!
