In union with USA and Canada, we formed part of the Mexican contingent of the Rosary Coast to Coast event on October 13. Organized by our "Grupo Mariano", 150 prayer warriors gathered as families, Youth and Single Men & Women to pray and intercede on the anniversary of the signature apparition of Our Lady of Fatima.

The new and final series of courses has hit the ground running,even as the end of the Liturgical year is looming.

Late June brought us a flash flood in which some of the "Seguidores de la Cruz" members had to evacuate and dry out their houses. Life was seriously interrupted for a week. So a cool spell ushered us into the last days of the "Canicula" with the local lore predicting that the temperatures would remain milder than usual (though still in the low 100s, high 90s and coolest temperatures at night sometimes above 80 degrees.) ... When is the season of the "Canicula"? Click on the title (October Going Out) to continue reading.

Elizabet, who came to a solid Catholic faith and personal knowledge of Jesus through the Solteros (the Single Men & Women of Seguidores de la Cruz). Raised a Jehova's witness, the conversion was not an easy transition for her. Her mother is a devout member of the Jehova's Witnesses and Eli, her only daughter.

Although there is a time for blessing one another with-- at least-- water. Jesus Christ [came], not with the water only but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is the truth. There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree. (1Jo 5:6b-8)

With wonderful examples and testimonies Eric and Kiki, sent out from California by “The Culture Project”, illuminated the dignity of each human person and the current attacks against us. To read more about "Purity in Action" click on the title, "A Cultural Encounter".

Mexico is a country of many martyrs. The faith of the people plumbs depths that missionaries from the USA must observe with respect and openness to learn. Click the title "The Sacred Triduum" to read the full explanation.

Padre Honorio is serving in the Heart of Reynosa. Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish is affectionately called the Cathedral of Reynosa, even though it does not enjoy the canonical status of a cathedral. Click on title ("Homecoming") to read more.

With four other transitional deacons Honorio was ordained to the priesthood on the feast of the Chair of St. Peter on 22 February, 2019. The feast day coincided with our Bishop's 28th anniversary of priestly ordination as well as the 60th anniversary of the establishment of our Diocese of Matamoros.

In light of many meeting cutbacks and time constraints due to the insecurity in Reynosa, the decision was made that we would have no Pastorela this year at the Christmas celebration.  In years past the Solteros (Single Men & Women) were the organizers and production directors of the Pastorela for Seguidores de la Cruz. Belen (aged 13) was shocked at the announcement of the cancellation of the Pastorela and rallied the support of her contemporary, Melisa, to volunteer for the job of the organizing the entire operation. The two of them argued that they could not remember a Christmas without the Pastorela. (Read more-- click on the title "Christmas Traditions")

Sister Amada made permanent vows as a consecrated sister on the feast of the Immaculate Conception. The private vows were made after Sister Amada has consecrated herself for one year at a time for several years. As part of the Sisterhood of Servants of the Cross, Sister Amada takes on the Mission primarily to love the Lord Jesus with her whole heart and mind and strength.

On Sunday, November 25th, current participants, alumni and former students of the school for families and invited guests will commemorate our recognition as a movement in the Church of Matamoros. Each Fall we celebrate our official acceptance into the Diocese as a Private Association of the Faithful.

The Solteros of Seguidores de la Cruz (SDLC) is a group of Single Men & Women who are following Jesus Christ, especially focused on embracing their personal vocation. The dynamic is tricky! I need to take full personal responsibility for the vocation I received at Baptism by looking outside myself to the Lordship of Jesus and to serving others for their well-being.

Parents are strongly encouraged to get a report of the session activities for each of their children who attend courses according to their age groups. This allows them to ask informed questions of their children and actively take up their formation. (Click title to continue)
