OUR SPIRITUALITY
The spirituality of the Christian Life Movement is
expressed in the motto: "Through Christ to Mary,
through Mary more fully to the Lord Jesus". In the
Mother of the Lord we see the model par excellence of
Christian life and fidelity to the Divine design.
The
Christian Life Movement considers that each person is a basic
unity. We see in that deep reality an invitation according to
the design of God to link life and concrete daily experience
with Faith, promoting the person's impulse towards sanctity in
an integral manner. We strive to overcome all separation
between Faith and Life in the conviction that, like Mary, we
must live a deeply incarnated spirituality in our daily lives.
The
Christian Life Movement was born in Latin America, where, in the
pilgrimage of the People of God and in the General Conferences
of its Bishops, we discovered the American imprint of that
vocation to sanctity, to the apostolate, and to serving God and
its real brothers and sisters, especially the young and the
poor, vocation that it undertakes and tries to incarnate. This
vocation leads the Christian Life Movement members to live the
commitment to evangelize intensely and to make the Gospel an
active part of our culture.
In
the face of the breaches which contradict the Plan of God and
are present in the life of men and modern society, the Christian Life
Movement is committed to a permanent effort, to live and
disseminate the gift of reconciliation as the "central theme in
the task of the Church", as has been taught by Pope John Paul
II, and as a way of approaching the whole mystery of Christ from
a dimension of plenitude and totality. |
