Allow me to present our spiritual family and the house where it gathers, and where some of us live. But if you will, I will allow the house its elf to do the presenting.

 

Pope John Paul II, in his apostolic exhortation, Vita consecrata, calls this state of life {that we lead} Confessio Trinitatis, which is to say: manifestation of the Holy Trinity. The papal document underlines that this type of life is an "icon of Christ transfigured", and that the "Blessed Virgin is the model of consecration for us to follow."

 

This house which I have mentioned is, in fact, an icon. This icon is situated in Bijakovici (in the parish of Medjugorje, in Bosnia & Herzegovina), and for those who believe, this icon helps one look more deeply into the spiritual reality present within souls, and the life which it generates and which wishes to be ma de manifest.

 

The consecrated members of this spiritual family make up a community of faithful called "KRALJICE MIRA, POTPUNO TVOJI - po Mariji k Isusu." This community is present in Bijakovici, and in other countries. Its members are faithful belonging to the Catholic Church whose style of living takes after the first Christian community. What they have written here they also witness with their lives and their vocation.

 

It is the Community's desire that the Holy Spirit should talk through their witness, with the intercession of our Heavenly Mother. It is in silence that the Spirit speaks. If you remain in silence, you will hear His voice within your souls.

 

Should you come to this house, please not only respect this silence, but create silence around yourselves and listen to God's Spirit. Lay down your cameras and your desire for material things. Put aside your curiosity, even your curiosity for spiritual things. This spiritual family also desires remaining in silence.

Enter into the Immaculate Heart of Mary which is completely open to God. Allow the Holy Spirit to speak to you, and that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him (Eph 1: 17).

 

All for the greater glory of the Triune God!
