Easter Announcement

 We had the Easter Announcement two nights ago. David told us a little bit about the meeting he had at the Chancery with Father Romy. Regarding the meeting at the Chancery, David said that we were too noisy, and the entire room erupted with laughter. 🤣🤣🤣  Apparently, the NCW made too much noise with Gennarini’s visit. 🤣🤣🤣 At any rate, our head catechists in Guam agreed to follow Father Romy’s instructions. It is always important to be obedient, and God will reward our obedience as always. God has rewarded us with many blessings despite everything that has happened. In the past, we have seen the communities grow and ex-members returning to the NCW. Our youth continues to participate in the pilgrimages and scrutacios. There is even a community of 13 members in the Department of Corrections. The NCW in Guam continues to move on. Nevertheless, Father Romy and the priests who were present at the meeting were very impressed with what the NCW is doing with its youth.

We are currently working towards the World Youth Day pilgrimage to Portugal. As I previously stated, Guam has approximately 160 youth who will be participating this year. The kids are busy fundraising toward their trip, which will be toward the end of July. Also, the evangelization into the Pacific region has already started. Some of the brothers have already left to Palau, Yap, and other islands. Others are already preparing to leave soon. 

I enjoyed the speech of Father Krzysztof. He spoke of three things: 1) the German church that is on the verge of schism, 2) the war between Russia and Ukraine and 3) the attack on traditional family and values by ideologies that make no sense.
