Dear members of the Union,
Kindly follow the link below for the 'Apostles for Today' for the month of March 2021.
The reflection proposed by the UAC General Secretariat for the new series of Apostles for Today has as its general theme ‘Living in Communion’, a prospective look that reflects something fundamental to our Pallottine charism.
The new series draws specific inspiration from Pope Francis' Encyclical Letter ‘Fratelli Tutti’, on fraternity and social friendship - which resonates in a particular way in us, members of the Pallottine Family, because it is rich in so many themes close to the heart of our Founder, St. Vincent Pallotti as well as our hearts as Pallottines, as we engage ourselves in the mission of the Church in the World.
Monthly Reflection - March 2021
Kindly forward this link to all other members in your contacts.
Yours sincerely

* Our Way of Life *
"Our diverse talents and abilities, our differences in culture, nationality and age are assets for the richness of the community. Although we may be engaged in a variety of ministries, we all share the common call to apostolic discipleship in a community of the Catholic Apostolate of St. Vincent Pallotti."(OWL, 91)

"As a community of disciples we are gathered around Jesus, the Apostle of the Eternal Father. Like the first disciples, we want to be with Jesus, be sent out by him and return to him to evaluate our service in the light of his presence." (OWL, 88)

"As Pallottines, it is our special charism to foster growth in faith and love among the laity, to awaken them to awareness of their apostolic call, and to cooperate with them in furthering the apostolic mission." (OWL, 21)

"Our relationships with one another should be marked by a love that bears all, believes all and hopes for all, a love that is neither conceited nor jealous, which hurts no one, nor is embittered or resentful. It is never discouraged but remains patient and kind. It rejoices with others and shares their suffering. It is with this kind of love that we should help and support one another." (OWL, 90)
