March for Life - Washington D.C.

Vocations Fair - Washington D.C.

With some of our Maronite Seminarians.

On Sunday 22^nd January we participated in the Eastern Catholic Churches Vocations Fair alongside our Maronite Seminarians. This was a great opportunity to meet the other religious communities in the Eastern Church, to showcase our charism and mission at our display table.

Praying with our Maronite Families

On our trip to Washington D.C. 20-24^th January we joined with the prayer group Cenacle of St. Maron (15 families) for the rosary, scripture sharing and supper at their monthly gathering. During the evening, Mother Marla Marie spoke to the parents on the call to sanctity while Sr. Therese Maria spoke to the children about the lives of the saints, in particular the life of St. Maron, and how they can live out their call to holiness.  The Cenacle of St. Maron prays for our Bishops, priests, seminiarians, and vocations.  The families are a source of support, courage and inspiration for each other as they journey to deepen their Christian life.
