On August 12, Emmanuel Luis and Andr\u00e9s Chavez started their 2 years of formation to become consecrated men with a Mass by the Territorial director, Fr Ricardo Sada LC. Each of them shared a short testimony of this new step in their life.<\/p>\n

This is part of our series for National Vocational Awareness Week<\/a>. Hopefully, these testimonies will help you to understand this vocation within the Regnum Christi Family.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Mass beginning our two years of formation was something special I\u2019ll remember my whole life. It represents the beginning of a personal adventure without equal,\u201d commented Emmanuel Luis.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel was struck by the family aspect of Regnum Christi. \u201cIt is amazing and special to live this moment with my family: with the consecrated men who have accompanied me up until now, with the Legionary priests who\u2019ve formed me, with the consecrated women who prayed for me with devotion, with all those special people in my life, especially my brother RC Missionaries. The Mass was a special moment to thank God for all those who\u2019ve accompanied me on my path of surrender to God, and those who\u2019ve accompanied me in preparing for what\u2019s to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Emanuel continued, \u201cThis Mass was the perfect time to put everything in God\u2019s hands and let him take the helm of my life. I was overwhelmed finding myself before God extending his arms to me in love, wanting to embrace me and reiterating the invitation he made long ago.\u201d<\/p>\n
