Move
closer to God through the poems and prayer of St. Therese of Lisieux.
"Thank
you so much for having lead us
close to the Heart of Jesus with the poetry of St Therese. Some words
are so powerful that we wanted stop the music...and pray..." "My
mission - to make God loved - will
begin after my death," she said. "I will spend my heaven doing good on
earth. I will let fall a shower of roses." Countless lives have been touched by her intercession, and thousands have imitated her "little way." She has been acclaimed the "greatest saint of modern times." Everywhere in the world the roses continue to fall. |

"For
if you were cut from
what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature,
into a cultivated one, how much more will they who belong to it by
nature be grafted back into their own olive tree." In this time of the New Millenium, characterized by steps of reconciliation, the Community of the Beatitudes offers the opportunity to discover different aspects of our elder brothers: JEWISH FEASTS, DANCES. Praying for the coming in glory of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Community of the Beatitudes discovered the connection between This coming and Our Reconciliation with the chosen people."The Church awaits that day, known to God alone, on which all people will address the Lord in a single voice and serve Him with one accord " Vatican II, Nostra Aetate # 4. |

The interest granted by the Community of the Beatitudes to the Jewish roots of our faith, gives a specific place for prayer for and with the Jewish people, either by learning Hebrew, studying Judaism, or discovering the chosen people in Israel. The Community is also associated to the prayer of the chosen people. On Friday night, we celebrate a family prayer on the model of the prayer of the entrance in Shabbat. If the Church announces the Kingdom of God, Israel recalls us that the messianic promises are not yet completely fulfilled. So together, we are waiting for the celestial Jerusalem. The Community prays intensely for this day when God will be all in all,Jews and non-Jews together. |
