Two Great Pillars of the Mercedarian Charism

CLEVELAND - July 6, 2013 - PRLog -- Do you know the two great pillars of the charism of the Mercedarian Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament?

They are the presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist and the maternal presence of Our Lady of Mercy. They form, however, one charism: Mercedarian-Eucharistic.

Our life revolves around the Eucharist. It is there, in silent adoration of the Blessed Sacrament that we discover the actual captivities that enslave us and our brothers and sisters. It is of utmost importance that we place ourselves, like Saint John the evangelist, on Jesus' heart to experience the longings of his heart and make them ours. Every day, when we go to the encounter of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, we surrender to Him everything we are and do, and we ask Him to transform us into Himself.

Only when we allow our Lord to draw us into communion with his heart's deepest desires, can we go to our apostolates and encounter our brothers and sisters. In the evening, we go back to prayer, carrying with us the unredeemed world and present it to Jesus asking him to hasten the day when He will be all in all.

Mary, Our Lady of Mercy, accompanies us during our journey, teaching us and helping us to be transformed in Eucharist for the glory of God and the good of our brothers and sisters.
