DENVER, CO, USA — Listen closely to the lyrics of this song by Michelle Marie Mandico as she performs live, “Breaking Hearts.” The message of life, love, and mercy pour forth from the notes of Michelle. And the challenges in this century for babies in the womb only continue to increase. As Catholics, we, the ‘one billion’ member family, must continue to use beauty to pierce the heart of this culture of death we live within. (more below)

Una charla sobre la decadencia moral del Padre Miguel Manzanero
21st February
El Padre Miguel Manzanera es un sacerdote de Bilbao, España pero hace más que 30 años está viviendo en Bolivia. Trabaja por el Arzobispado de Cochabamba y es el vicario judicial para el tribunal eclesiastico de Bolivia. También trabaja en la Universidad Católica Boliviana como director del Departamento de Bioética. Además, es dentro del Apostolado de la Nueva Evangelización Pro Vida. Con toda esta experiencia con bioética y pro vida, el padre nos compartió una charla interesante sobre la decadencia moral en los paises desarollados e incluso estamos viendo los efectos de eso en los paises latinoamericanos. Es una lucha sumamente importante que no empezamos a aceptar que las cosas que nuestra cultura hoy en día acepta como normal. El aborto, la homosexualidad, el divorcio, los anticonceptivos, el alcohol, las drogas, el uso de la sexualidad humana de temprana edad … Read More »
Conceived in Rape, Born in Love, Flourishing for Eternity by Amber Masterson
21st January
Even a child conceived in rape deserves the protection of the law.
When it comes to children conceived in rape, pro-choice does not even bother trying to muddle the humanity of the child.

If there is one thing that seems to be getting the attention it rightfully deserves, it is the issue of abortion; more specifically, the rape exception. The fact of the matter is the rape exception is what keeps abortion on demand legal. Much of the support for abortion, even by some pro-lifers, rests on the rape exception.
My Mother had been molested by 2 men. She was very vulnerable and had a low self-esteem because
of it. When my biological Father walked into her life (she was 14 and he was 22). He presented himself as someone she … Read More »

Evangelizing the culture and helping the poor
10th September
An Australian named Greg goes to Peru to begin a year of growth and learning about the Socalitium of Christian Life in Lima, Peru. He is an aspirant, meaning he aspires to go into formation and come out as a consecrated lay man that will devote his life to the apostolic work he does evangelizing the culture. Meeting the people where they are at, but not necessarily being ok with where they are, and challenging them to move to higher levels spiritually. We found him with a mission group from Boulder, Colorado that went for 2 weeks to serve the poor in a shantytown in Lima. Greg has been living in Lima for the last year and hopes to enter his formation this coming year to become a Sodalith, a consecrated lay man with the movement. We hope you enjoy … Read More »

Padre Vincent Minnelli Encuentros con Cristo: parte 2
25th July
Después de su viaje al Perú, el Señor fue mostrando al Padre Vincent Minnelli que su voluntad fue que volviera al Perú como sacerdote para vivir con los pobres y servirlos. En México de vuelta, fue a ayudar a personas sufriendo pero encontró un límite tremendo donde no pudo perdonar sus pecados ni llevar Jesucristo presente en la eucaristía. Se sintió una llamada fuerte para ser sacerdote y para volver al Perú. Entonces fue a seminario en Toledo, España, donde está el seminario para el movimiento Siervos de los Pobres quienes están en Cusco, Perú. Ahora hace varios años que es sacerdote viviendo en el Perú con los más necesidados. Es encargado con el seminario menor allá en Andahuaylillas (cerca de Cusco) y es director espiritual para el seminario de Cusco. Actualmente el Padre Vincent viaja unas veces al año … Read More »
