Acamps Summer Festival: to the ends of the world
Since meeting the Community, I have participated in numerous Acamps, 11 to be exact. And because God never allows me to be complacent and thus fail to see that He is always able to realize something completely new, in this Acamps Summer Festival, I was able to see that the Shalom Charisma is truly international: it is not only for the Brazilians, but for the whole world; I testified to the fact that God truly sends us to the ends of the world, so that the seed of the Vocation may blossom in the furthest and most unexpected soils. We are a single charisma, spreading throughout the whole world, people from over 10 different nationalities who sought a common language ...

“Stay online with Jesus”
The 6th Philippine Conference on New Evangelization (PCNE) was held from July 18-21 at the University of Santos Tomas in Manila. The theme of the PCNE was Filipino Youth Walking with Jesus and was chosen to celebrate the Year of the Youth as declared by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines in response to Pope Francis’ Synod on Youth last year. The goal of this year’s PCNE was “to thank God for the gift of the youth, listen to them, and to give the youth opportunity to be protagonists of new evangelization…” 1 There were 4 days with many graces and a great experience with the young people, many of whom were the main speakers.  The first day was mostly ...

The end of an era… To begin a NEW ONE!
In September of 2017, we arrived in the Philippines for a new chapter of our missionary lives. None of us have ever lived in a foreign country before and for us it was like going on to live a new adventure that this life of following Jesus would guide us to. From then to now, we have had the opportunity of getting to know this culture in all the possible ways through food tasting, as of almost every day in the 6 first months that we lived in a farm located in a province named Masbate and even after that, experiencing the most famous delicacy of the country called balut. Also, we have had the chance of going to different ...

Saint Michael’s Lent: have you heard of it?
There is an old devotion that seemed to be quite popular especially in the 13th up to the 18th century before it started to disappear. After many years, this devotion is being revived in many countries particularly in America and is offered to the great Saint Michael, the Archangel. It all started with Saint Francis of Assisi. We all heard about him, one of the most known saints of the Catholic Church who is admired even by non-Christians. He is known for his humility, simplicity, love for the poor, the nature, animals, and for the Church. All of this was only possible because the once spoiled “mama’s boy” had a deep experience with Jesus Christ. His heart was suddenly taken by ...

Acamps: “Much more than I could have ever hoped for”
I arrived at last year’s Acamps without any unusual expectations: a vacation abroad with catechesis and moments of leisure playing sports, singing and attending concerts. I did consider that this would be a time of joy and deepening of my faith but what that week gave me was much more than I could have ever hoped for. In fact, despite having had great difficulty in the first days participating and feeling involved in moments of prayer, every day the Lord worked in my heart until I truly experienced His Love, the greatest gift I could receive. But there were so many other graces that I received during Acamps: new friendships and sharing with other young Italians and youth from many ...

What is this book: “Writings?”
From time to time it is possible to view posts, comments, stories and tweets in the social media networks of the Shalom Catholic Community or its members which have content from the book Writings. But what is it about this book that attracts so much attention? Certainly, it is not the size of the miniature version which one can hold in the palm of a hand. Rather, its magnetism lays in the richness of its words. For the Shalom Community, Writings forms the basis of Shalom spirituality, revealing the identity of the Charism and the spirit of the founder Moysés Azevedo. The book is divided into sections which tell and forever preserve the origins, challenges, results and essential points of ...

“My life has changed”
Acamps 2018 was a very meaningful time for me and one of the most extraordinary moments that I have lived in my life as a Christian. The experience I had at this festival is almost beyond description and I still can’t fully explain it. I remember the recreational evenings as if they were yesterday: full of music, dancing, emotions and encounters . My life has changed. Because the Lord has kept His promise in my life. For the first time I had the grace to let myself be showered by the Holy Spirit, opening my heart to welcome the love of God. I still remember these words which I received during the Effusion of the Spirit prayer and they will ...
