What is visible in my face? What is visible in my heart?\u201d Then, pointing to the example of the Poverello of Assisi, he wished that we might be joined with Christ in that way, to be so conformed to Him that \u201cHe becomes visible in our hands, in our feet and in our hearts.\u201d<br \/>\nThe Minister Provincial of the Province of St. Anthony and Bl. James of Strepar in Poland (Cracow) Friar Marian GO\u0141\u0104B, expressed his gratitude to the newly professed for having chosen the Conventual Franciscan lifestyle and for having discovered what God has called them to. He hoped that they might hear Christ say to them at the end of their days: \u201cGood and faithful servant, enter into the joy of your Lord.\u201d The Minister Provincial thanked the parents of the newly professed and told them that they, too, become part of the Conventual Franciscan family and that this is undoubtedly an expression of God\u2019s mercy and love for them.<br \/>\nSpeaking on behalf of all the newly professed, Friar Marcin thanked God, the Mother of God, the families, the Minister Provincial, the Custos and Vicar Custos of the Custody of Ukraine, the formators of the postulancy program and the novitiate, the community of Kalwaria Pac\u0142awska and all those who made an impression in their lives.<br \/>\nOn October 1, 2022, all five confreres will begin philosophical and theological studies in Cracow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Friar Jan Maria SZEWEK<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On September 17, 2022, the Feast of the Stigmata of St. Francis of Assisi, five confreres (three from Poland and two from Ukraine) made their temporary profession at the Shrine of the Passion of Christ and the Mother of God in Kalwaria Pac\u0142awska, Poland.
