Mary Schwarz's Story: Meeting those at the crossroads

from For This Moment · host Laura Matthews and Megan Sternhagen

Today we are around the table with Mary Schwarz who has “traveled the farthest” of all our guests-joining us from the Philippines! Mary shares how she was first drawn to God through the existential ache for Him through beauty, how in college she found she could have a personal relationship with Him, and how He drew her to Himself through her vocation as a Consecrated Woman of Regnum Christi.  Enjoy listening to Mary’s new and exciting apostolate of teaching the Alpha Course to law students at Manila’s De La Salle University and how she has gathered a community of apostles to help her live out this mission. Mary uses her spiritual charism of evangelization to reach a population that doesn’t know Him. We recognize that we are engaged by Christ’s call: “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations” (Mt 28:19) to go beyond our known borders. We want to share his Heart of a Shepherd who, in today’s world, more than leaving the ninety-nine sheep to go after the one, brings and works with the one to go search for the ninety-nine together with him; to go out to meet those who are away and distant at the crossroads.-Regnum Christi General Convention Communique, n. 21  Thank you, Mary, for reading “the world from the Heart of Christ” (RC General Convention Communique, n. 20) and responding to His invitation with a generous yes–going out to meet those at the crossroads!  Show notes:  Alpha Course: https://alphausa.org/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwl6-3BhBWEiwApN6_kncAi2--7GuBRUDZ325LXhS3ZaMPvCAcuq16Jj9O7RSobTH1JC8LVRoCEnMQAvD_BwE
