Little Portions: Meditations on Marian-Franciscan Spirituality
()
About this ebook
The lay association called Entrega was originally conceived as a network of prayer groups to promote the Marian-Franciscan spirituality. The name itself is a Spanish word that means a sacrifice or giving of self and is used especially in the context of one's total response to God's Love. The word can also refer to more mundane matters, like the delivery of pizza.
The title has an obvious reference to the Portiuncula, the little church where St. Francis founded his three orders. Each topic will hopefully serve as a little portion of nourishment for the soul. They have been used for group discussions but can form a 40-day private retreat as St. Francis was known for keeping several "lents" each year.
May the Holy Immaculate Conception bring us all into a deeper union with her Divine Son. God bless you!
La asociacion laica Entrega fue concebida originalmente como una red de grupos de oracion para promover la espiritualidad mariana-franciscana. El nombre en si es una palabra espanola que significa sacrificio o abandono de uno mismo y se usa especialmente en el contexto de la respuesta total de uno al Amor de Dios. La palabra tambien puede referirse a asuntos mas mundanos, como la entrega de pizza.
El titulo tiene una referencia obvia a la Porciuncula, la pequena iglesia donde San Francisco fundo sus tres ordenes. Es de esperar que cada tema sirva como una pequena porcion de alimento para el alma. Se han utilizado para discusiones grupales, pero pueden formar un retiro privado de 40 dias, ya que San Francisco era conocido por mantener varias "cuaresmas" cada ano.
Que la Santa Inmaculada Concepcion nos lleve a todos a una union mas profunda con su Divino Hijo. !Dios te bendiga!
