Formation Process

After your period of discernment as an AMI, if you discover that God is calling you to consecrate your life to Him as a Fraterna you enter Formation. Formation is a period in which you prepare yourself for your missionIt is a time to deepen in the knowledge of yourself and of the Sodalit Spirituality, and to grow in your love for the Church and for the vocation. It is a time when you do not work outside the community, but totally dedicate time to pray, to do exercise, to study and to learn how to live in community. It is a very special and blessed time that gives solid foundations to be prepared for the future mission!

Once you have joined the community you follow a series of steps, starting with Formation, making several promises and commitments over a time of at least seven years. After at least seven years of responding to the progressive promises and commitments, you might be ready to make your Perpetual Profession, which is final definite promise, in which you publicly profess your total apostolic availability for life in the Marian Community of Reconciliation, through the commitments of obedience, celibacy and sharing of goods
