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.

Several new videos (in Spanish) are now available. Después de mucha batalla espiritual, nuestros recursos están listos de nuevo para publicar las homilías. Se nota que hay personas interesadas en las homilías. Hay unos nuevos y más que vamos a cargar también apenas vienen.

The third of four 9-week courses for 2018 is coming into week number eight. Everyone who has been studying and applying theselves to understand and express the particular materials at hand are now considering a testimony. How has the Lord been working in our marriage, our family or in my heart throughout this late-summer period?

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)

Our Fall session began for all "Seguidores de la Cruz" (Followers of the Cross), Married Couples with their families and also the Single Men & Women. The July vacation respite has flown. (Click title to continue)

Our Newsletter, "La Semilla" has been delayed by technical problems on the cyber side of distribution. Usually it gets postd before the land mail issue goes out. Many of our readers find it helpful to download the current issue in order to explain the mission to new people, and now they are in business.

The newsletter for Summer of 2018, “La Semilla”, eagerly awaits to be unveiled. Nearly all the preparations are complete. The lead feature conveys an interview with Ofelio and Rocio, a couple with two sons, who have been attending the mission courses of Seguidores de la Cruz for just over a year-and-a-half.

The Stations of the Cross at the mission are nearly ready to be unveiled. Twenty-one years ago, we were able to purchase the land which is now our center for Catholic Family Renewal, called El Rancho Nazaret.

Courses begin anew this weekend. This next session will take us to the end of June. Most grade schools and middle schools in Mexico are in session to the end of June as well, so there is not the same shock that might accompany such a schedule in the USA.

Saint John Paul II exhorts us to a mission which is new in its “ardor, methods and expression”. The Angels' directive to the women in Matthew's Gospel (28:7) is quite relevant for us today.

This year's devotion, presented an opportunity for a unique meditation provided to different families at each station. A couple or a family was called upon to take up their cross and together to carry it to the next station.

Every Ash Wednesday the Church enters into battle, even as Christ was driven into the desert and confronted the Tempter. As Jesus conquered, we pray that His battle plan for us, His body on earth, will prove us willing to engage through prayer, fasting and almsgiving-- utilizing his provisions (Eph 6:10-18). May Easter find us victorious in evangelization and giving an attractive witness by living a culture of life and love.

Unos patrocinadores generosos han hecho provisión para grabar en video las homilías dominicales. Además varias fallas son rectificadas para realizar este aspecto de nuestra página de web. Ya se puede ver y escuchar estas homilías de la misa en español.

Generous patrons have made it possible to video record the Sunday homilies. We have been working out the bugs and glitches to realize this feature on this web page. The homilies are now available from our Mass in Spanish.

The break for the new year has trudged on, cold and wet. We nearly had to go into panic mode to avoid freezing and bursting water pipes. But calmer and warmer winds are beginning to blow. Our Sunday School for Families begins on the 28th of January.

We celebrate each Fall the anniversary of the Servants of the Cross Mission being officially recognized by the Bishop of Matamoros and serving in Reynosa, Mexico. This year marked the Tenth Anniversary. Hosted by the Solteros and the Seguidores de la Cruz... (click title, 10th Anniv.,to continue)
