Each week, in all the centres of The Work of the Church, an hour of formation and fellowship is offered, open to everyone, adults and young people alike. Through listening to a talk or watching a video of Mother Trinidad, the soul gradually discovers and learns to live ever more deeply, with wisdom and love, the wonderful realities of the faith.
These gatherings help to deepen the Christian life, the life of prayer, Christian formation, and the richness of being Church. Living the Liturgy more deeply, learning how to pray, and becoming more aware of the fullness contained in being living members of the Church are some of the fruits experienced by those who attend these weekly meetings with an open and persevering heart.
On the Lord’s Day, one Sunday a month, the family gathering held in some of the Houses of Apostolate of The Work of the Church is a joyful experience of unity, friendship, and Christian life for all members of the family.
The Holy Mass in the morning, lunch outdoors, games and activities for boys and girls, together with a time of formation and spiritual fellowship in the afternoon, make this festive day a true rest and a human and spiritual renewal. All of this helps to strengthen the life of faith, the life of prayer, and Christian identity in a family context.
Coat of arms with the motto of the Oratory: “To make God be content and make others happy”. Ever since the beginning Mother Trinidad wanted to establish the “Youth Oratory” in every apostolic and parish centre of The Work of the Church.
In them, the boys and girls who attend weekly learn from an early age to live their relationship with God with naturalness and joy, discovering Jesus in the Tabernacle. In an atmosphere of fun, with games, sports, songs, and outings into the countryside, they gradually make their own the motto given to the Oratory by Mother Trinidad de la Santa Madre Iglesia herself: “To make God be content and make others happy.” A beautiful path for growing in the Christian life, the life of prayer, and Christian formation from childhood.
Mother Trinidad always had a special concern for young people, desiring that they receive the necessary formation, encounter God in their lives, and discover the path that He has willed for each one from all eternity.
The Work of the Church organises throughout the year, in its apostolic centres and parishes, formation meetings, pilgrimages, and outings to help young people discover and live deeply the joy of being Church, strengthening their Christian identity, their life of faith, and their Christian vocation in the midst of a world that often draws them away from God.
The summer camps, held in separate sessions for boys and girls, are a wonderful means of offering children and young people the formation and spiritual experience they need to build their lives on God. In them, they find real support for growing in the Christian spiritual life, Christian formation, and friendship with the Lord, who alone is able to give true meaning, fullness, and peace to the heart.
