Spiritual 立博中文版的生活
The Saint John Paul II Center for University Ministry is located in the Benedictine Center. University Ministry serves the spiritual needs of the entire University of Mary community. It offers a broad range of programs designed to promote an integrated spiritual life and a culture of prayerful discernment, 遇到, and evangelization.
University Ministry at the University of Mary takes its vision, 语气, and very heart from the Good Shepherd (Mt 18:13-14) who came to seek and find the lost, thereby forming those close to Him to do likewise. 因此, our identity is apostolic and our mission in everything we do is to support the work of evangelization. We humbly recognize that it is in the midst of this work that the deeper conversion and transformation of our own hearts takes place and we come truly to know Jesus.
We are ever vigilant and mindful of the temptation to turn inward on ourselves. We resist and we help each other to resist this downward pull. We do not look to get embroiled in the disputes of the day within the Church, which radiate plenty of heat but little light – that is not our mission and the stakes are too high. 我们选择, 而不是, 蒙上帝的恩典, to echo Mary’s fiat at all times (Lk 1:38) and to live our Catholic faith with joyful reverence and unceasing gratitude in service to Christ and His Church. This is the gift we have graciously been given; this is the gift we desire to give.
