A specific missionary spirituality has been
characteristic of the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary since the
beginning. This is an integrated way of living as Gospel witness and
proclamation. It is centred in the Eucharist and follows the way of
St. Francis of Assisi.
At the heart of this spirituality is the image of
Mary, Mother of Jesus, who gave herself totally to the plan of God
for the life of the world. The FMM live and share together in
community, where they seek to live a real communion with each other.
Ecumenical collaboration and dialogue with all
persons sincerely seeking truth and justice characterise their way
of mission throughout the world.
For that reason, the internationality among the
FMM is a path and sign of communion in a world which is fragmented.
This meeting of cultures lived in community is already the good
news. |
