Ongoing Formation of Regnum Christi Members

…yearn to continue knowing, loving, and following Christ more and more closely, and therefore actively seek to go deeper in their prayer and sacramental life, to be ever more fully “united to the vine”  (cf. John 15).

...long to have Christ’s grace transform every corner of their being, and therefore also work intentionally on their own human and intellectual development.

…are convinced that Christ’s Kingdom here on earth is constantly being opposed by sin and by the “powers of darkness” (Eph. 6:12), and therefore live out every aspect of their Christian identity and mission dynamically, with courage, resilience, and astuteness. This is what we have traditionally called a militant spirit.

…feel themselves co-responsible for the life of the Church, whose “deepest identity” is evangelizing, who “exists in order to evangelize” (Bl Pope Paul VI, EN 14), and therefore are always ready and willing to reach out to others with the Gospel message. They do this through one-on-one encounters, through sanctifying their everyday activities, and especially through creative and organized apostolic action in harmony with their particular lay vocation in the Church, which emphasizes transforming the temporal order with the leaven of the Gospel.

…are equally convinced that in Christ the everlasting victory has already been won and given to us through grace, and therefore their lives are marked by a sincere and spontaneous spirit of optimism and joy.

.…have experienced Christ’s love for them in a particularly personal way, and therefore give extra attention to passing that love onto others in everything they say and do, especially through hidden acts of kindness and through always showing honor and respect for others in their words. This is what we have traditionally called “benedicencia” (cf. SRC #23.2)

…view time as one of God’s most precious gifts, and therefore seek to use their time wisely and responsibly as a way of glorifying and loving the Lord (cf. SRC #21).
