SUMMARY:Anniversary of Death of Bogdan Janski
DESCRIPTION:FOCAL POINT: \n“From the very beginning we were convinced that\, if our own personal conversion and that of other brothers who were on the way to closer union with God were to be effective\, it was proper and necessary that we withdraw from the social circles in which we lived and gather together to form a community. This was to be a community in which each member would support the others\, strengthening them in spirit through common exercises – a community in which members would be led to the way of truth\, recognizing their serious obligations to themselves\, to God and to people. Thus\, we decided to begin a common life\, and founded a small house at the beginning of 1836.” (Letter from Bogdan Janski to V. Wieloglowski) \n  \nDeceased:\nBOGDAN JANSKI\, 1840\, Rome\, Italy\nFr. Francis Jaglowicz\, 1961\, Louisville\, USA\nFr. Stanley Ziemba\, 1964\, Chicago\, USA \n  \nBirthdays:\nFr.

SUMMARY:St. Bridget
DESCRIPTION:FOCAL POINT: \n“For the perfect fulfillment of our vows and in order to truly die together with Christ\, the spirit of mortification is necessary. … Therefore\, we will carry out everything properly and faithfully\, courageously face all adversities and lovingly and eagerly conquer all difficulties and anything that can turn us away from God.” (Con. 80) \n  \nBirthdays:\nBr.
