(+39) rcordium@gmail.com «My choice is made! I ll roam through the world, living just like a vagabond, to rescue my poor neighbor» (H 22) THE REIGN OF JESUS THROUGH MARY «The Association of Mary, Queen of All Hearts is thus an extension of the Company of Mary, not in the sense that the Congregation would seek to recruit all for itself, but rather that in the near or distant future the Blessed Virgin will have more children, servants and slaves of love than ever before, and that through them Jesus Christ, my beloved Master, will reign more than ever in the hearts of men and women» (Sta. 2, 2). 1

2 In the Footsteps of Montfort in the forest of MERVENT FAR FROM THIS WORLD IN THIS HERMITAGE SAINT LAURENT-SUR-SÈVRE, FRANCE - The Montfortian Marian Fraternity or in French Fraternité Mariale Montfortaine (FMM) of Saint Laurent-sur-Sèvre holds their monthly meeting every 2nd Saturday of the month, to pray, to celebrate and to live a fraternal moment. After spending a day with Mary in May, we met again on Saturday, June 9, in the Footsteps of Montfort at the forest of Mervent. We were welcomed by a friend of Wisdom, a guardian of the place. Then we sat near the Grotto, a place of hermitage of Father de Montfort. The forest of Mervent had captivated Fr. De Montfort by its deep solitude, its steep rocks and the majesty of its trees. In this desert he sought tranquillity, peace, contact with God where he felt the need between two parish missions. It is here that he composed the Hymn 157: New Hymn on SOLITUDE. "The eloquent silence, of rocks and forests only preach peace, breathe only innocence. Far from the world, at this hermitage, let s go into hiding to serve God." We have lived a moment of pause, of silence a fraternal moment... By: Members of the Fraternity 2
