VATICAN CITY, OCT 12, 2001 (VIS) - Published today was a Message from Pope John Paul to Fr. Hubert M. Moons, prior general of the Order of Brothers, Servants of Mary, on the occasion of their General Chapter, meeting on the theme "With Mary, From Listening to God to Serving Life." The Order is meeting in Ariccia, Italy from October 8 to 30. The Message is dated September 29.
The Pope said that the Chapter "represents a propitious occasion to better underscore a particular aspect of the participation of the Virgin Mary in the mystery of Christ and the Church, with the aim of drawing from this the inspiration for the choices and operative decisions of the Order. For the Brothers, Servants of Mary, from the start it has been the Virgin, the Star, who illuminates their path and is a sure reference point for all of their apostolic programs."
He highlighted four aspects of Mary's presence in the lives of the Servants of Mary: With Mary in the search for God; With Mary in listening to God, With Mary in a life of service and With Mary in serving vocational animation.
