Dear
brothers and sisters in the faith, peace be to you from Gethsemane. This
month we are proposing you to watch over this mystery that happens here at
Gethsemane: the Lord acts and saves humanity quietly… even when the disciples (and
us!) sleep! (Mt 26.43). God acts precisely contrary to the logic of the world.
This is the case in the history of the world… and, in the same way, in our
personal history. Let us pray, thank, intercede and contemplate this wonderful
mystery.
Hora Sancta
We are the sons of St. Francis, and we are THE custodians, according to the will of God, of one of the places that Jesus loved the most: the garden called GETHSEMANE. This is a unique place in the world. It is the place where the Lord manifested his Yes forever by being ready to enter where nobody else had ever entered, where he plunged into darkness, in the final battle against death, in which humanity has always ended up being a loser.
