Pace e Bene (Peace and Good) !
We are a Catholic Comunity of Friars and Nuns (Sisters) who want to live ALL of the Gospel with the facts and in the Truth.
We also live with out wanting, asking or touching money, not that it’s bad to touch it as also the desciples had a safe keeping, but our hearts greatly desire to live also as Jesus says: “go with out bread, back pack, cane or money” (Cf. Mk 6, 7-8).
We have attached 3 short films that partly express our Charisma, they may be of great help to those in Vocational research and that have a great desire to discover Gods Full Will upon them. We hope you enjoy them…

For what ever your Spiritual need be, with the Grace of God and within our limits, We are at your service !..
Let us know what you think on the short films,

you have a wondeful and interesting community. by the way i saw in the first video a part where you friars are pointing to a map and i saw you have a little square on top of our country the Philippines. are you present here in the Philippines?
 
Peace and Good Thomas !
You are very attentive in your observation ! The little blue squares over the map of the world indicate where there are people who have contacted us with a special Vocational inquiry… that is, those wanting to come to us here in Italy to have an expierince of prayer in the scilence to discern the better the Wiil of God. Unfortunatly, we are not yet in any other county outside of Italy, but as we a new growing community, we hope that as soon as possible we will be found also in the Philipines!
I am from Australia, and ten years ago, when the Lord gave me the grace of meeting the founder of our community in Sicily after a visit to my Maltese relatives, I understood that I had a very special opertunity to learn from him, so, after having returned to Australia I came back, and thanks be to God now I have 100% certianty that this calling is Gods Will for me.
Best wishes of Holiness, and Beatific Immortality !!!
Frair Antonio.

Have you seen the website we use ? :

i see and that is so awesome! 👍

if ever God sends you here in the Philippines, I’ll be welcoming you then!😃

Take care and God bless!
 
It is’nt impossible for us, even though we would have to “Hithchike” there!.. I’ve also been to Mexico with the founder of our community and a Sister in experience with one way tickets, and with out cain, back pack and without money (Money is not bad, but as I eplained above, the Lord has called us to the complete poverty!) If you see in the last film of the three here above with the maps of us hichhiking, you will just see all the more how great the providance of the Lord is !
 
If history telle us anything , it tells us that mixed communities rarely, if ever, work.
I wish you well all the same.

Thank you Thomas for your honest reply to that little sheep of the Lord who’d forgotten that the first Catholic Community that has ever existed was also both male and female, devotng themselves also with one accord in prayer (cf. Acts 1, 14).
Best wishes of Holiness, Friar Antonio.
 
i understand brother. i belong to a religious community VERY similar to your community, the Intercessors of the Lamb. They were throwing stones at us, “Look, they’re a 'co-ed convent, very deviant, they’re heretical, very ugly” but wait, do you know our community? our brothers and sisters don’t live together, they live separately… in fact VERY separately. there are persons who accuse without knowing.

i’ve read how you live, that men and women live separately, that men are not allowed to the women’s quarters etc.
 
As you have already seen on the website we use, that it is of great importance for us to not only avoid the possible human weakness’ but also avoid having the public think stange things…

Like so it is written in the VARIOUS CLARIFICATIONS of our RULE of life ON THE BEHAVIOR BETWEEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS
(CHAPTER III°)
IN REGARDS TO THE BEHAVIOR THAT NEEDS TO BE MAINTAINED IN EVERY PLACE WITH WOMEN, OR VICE VERSA, “OBBAYING THE GOOD SENSE”

<< In regards then, to the behaviour in voyage and out of voyage of a little friar, (excepting the Priest in the briefest possible time of the Confession), in any place where he is found, shall do everything in the limits of the possible (Cf. Jn 8,9), to never be alone with a little sister or with a woman, or vice versa, for the little nuns; to avoid so further temptations or possible scandals; given that to such regards, so says the Lord:
<< It is inevitable that scandals happen but woe to the man guilty of which the scandal happens ! >> (Mt 18,6), << it would Be better for him that a great millstone was tied to his neck, and then thrown in the depths of the sea >>. (Mt 18,6 B)

N.B. Therefore ( in what ever place ), never be alone brothers and sisters, and if the case of exception happened, denominated in this Rule V.V. “for how much it is possible” or “ within the possible limits”, this brother and sister - that have to make the brotherly correction or etc… they be always and imperatively under the supervision of someone ! - Where outside of this Religious command, one falls into the serious risk of immediate expulsion of our community ! The Discourse is also valid for whoever sees this and doesn’t report it to one of our superiors V.V., according to the Evangelical brotherly correction. (Cf. Mt 18, 15-17…). Amen ! >>

The Lord thank you again Thomas for your brotherly understanding… I welcome you to keep in touch, and if you ever come to visit Italy, we will be more than happy to host you !
