“We have entered the GREAT NOVENA of November. We know that this Novena is celebrated with many Initiatives in every Community, School, Province or District. Some Sectors mark this Great Mennaisian Week at another time of the year, when children and young people are at School.

We have been part of this Great Surge of Devotion, Prayer, Knowledge and Love for Father de la Mennais for over a Century. Filial Devotion that has borne much fruit of Mennaisian “Holiness” among the Students and their Families, the Daughters of Providence and the Brothers. It has also led to the recognition of the Heroic Nature of the Father’s Virtues, despite Numerous Obstacles.

We are probably a little impatient because we do not see his Beatification very close and because the Recognition of an Inexplicable Healing seems difficult to obtain. But let us keep Faith and Hope in the One who never ceases to listen and answer Our Prayers. » (Brother Dino De Carolis, Postulator General)

Let us make this New Mennaisian Week a Strong Time of Devotion to Jean-Marie de la Mennais, to Our Founders, and to all the Holy Pioneer Brothers of our Institute.

Let us pray to Father de la Mennais for all Our Sick, those who trust in the Lord through his Intercession.

We invite you to share before, during and after this Week, everything you have Experienced, Produced, Animated, Sang, Posters…experiences of all kinds!

Below are some Achievements for this Week’s Mennaisian Animation…

An Application for Mennaisian Week (in Indonesian – left), in English (>>>) …

An Animation Booklet for Praying in the Mennaisian Family (in English) for the Week.
Another Prayer Booklet with texts in  français, anglais, espagnol.

Have a Nice Week everyone. Brother Hervé ASSE
