From March 28 to April 5, Br. John Frain, LC, and Br. Maximilian Nguyen, LC, two American seminarians currently studying theology in Rome, supported the Regnum Christi locality in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, during the Holy Week missions. They were joined by Br. Alexis Ortiz, originally from Mexico.

Together with Fr. Dain Scherber, LC, who is from Minnesota and now lives and serves in Abidjan, the brothers visited Regnum Christi families, blessed their homes, and prayed with them. Additionally, they shared moments of Eucharistic adoration and testimony at the Highlands School, collaborated with the Missionaries of Charity, participated in sessions of the local RC Council, and provided support in various parishes in the city.

There were also opportunities for fellowship with local priests who are RC members or supporters of Regnum Christi.

Although Regnum Christi in the Ivory Coast remains a developing reality as a direct extension of the General Directorate, the brothers remarked that it is full of possibilities and could benefit from the support or participation of several territories.

Alex Kucera has lived in Atlanta, GA, for the last 46 years. He is one of 9 children, married to his wife Karmen, and has 3 girls, one grandson, and a granddaughter on the way. Alex joined Regnum Christi in 2007. Out of the gate, he joined the Helping Hands Medical Missions apostolate and is still participating today with the Ghana Friendship Mission.

In 2009, Alex was asked to be the Atlanta RC Renewal Coordinator for the Atlanta Locality to help the RC members with the RC renewal process. Alex became a Group Leader in 2012 for four of the Atlanta Men’s Section Teams and continues today. Running in parallel, in 2013, Alex became a Team Leader and shepherded a large team of good men.

Alex was honored to be the Atlanta Mission Coordinator between 2010 to 2022 (12 years), coordinating 5-8 Holy Week Mission teams across Georgia. He also created and coordinated missions at a parish in Athens, GA, for 9 years. Alex continues to coordinate Holy Week Missions, Advent Missions, and Monthly missions at Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Cumming, GA.

From 2016 to 2022, Alex also served as the Men’s Section Assistant in Atlanta. He loved working with the Men’s Section Director, the Legionaries, Consecrated, and Women’s Section leadership teams.

Alex is exceptionally grateful to the Legionaries, Consecrated, and many RC members who he’s journeyed shoulder to shoulder, growing his relationship with Christ and others along the way. He knows that there is only one way, that’s Christ’s Way, with others!
