How do I become a missionary of the Shalom Catholic Community?

At the foot of the cross and before the Lord: Days of Worship for the Synod in the San Lorenzo Center

The new San Lorenzo Center was inaugurated with the aim of being a beacon, a point of reference for young people from all over the world, who as pilgrims reach the heart of the Church and can have the opportunity to listen to God’s voice and receive the necessary grace to discover their vocation and mission. In view of being an environment conducive to listening and meeting with God, in addition to the experience of being welcomed by Shalom Community missionaries and young volunteers, as well as being able to visit the cross that St. John Paul II gave to young people on the occasion of the first WYD and the icon of Mary “Salus Populi Romani”, visitors have the opportunity ...

The youth center at the center of the Church

Though it sits just steps from St. Peter’s Basilica, it goes unseen by the thousands of people that pass by every day.

Emmir Nogueira: Let ourselves be drawn by God as was the Virgin Mary

No other person in the world will ever be able to relate to God like Mary. However, according to Emmir, we have received the same love from Him. In the Shalom Forum, the Shalom Community’s co-founder, Emmir Nogueira, spoke about the relationship of Mary and gratuity based on the book of Song of Songs. She made a comparison between the relationship of God with Mary who knew how to perfectly welcome the grace of God. “God embraced her in Love and she freely welcomed all of God’s love, and conceived without sin, she welcomed without any resistance. We also are embraced by God’s love and have received this same love. Although, we are resistant to God’s love “because of sin” ...

Moysés Azevedo: Holiness is a gift, vocation and free response 

Far from being something that we can acquired through our own strength, holiness should be welcomed like a gift of from God and a calling. Holiness was the topic addressed at the Shalom Forum in Fortaleza, Brazil by Moysés Azevedo, the founder of the Shalom Catholic Community, to the more than 5000 participants. “Only God is holy. The Holy Spirit pours out God’s holiness upon us. We receive holiness for free. It is a gift and a vocation because God calls us to be holy. God has welcomed each and everyone of us to be holy”, affirms Moysés. He highlighted that God made us to be free, which is why holiness is also a choice. “Holiness is a relationship with God, ...
