#WeAreACI

In his Lenten message, Pope Leo XIV invites us to In his Lenten message, Pope Leo XIV invites us to something simple… to listen 👂
“To make room for the Word through listening… because the willingness to listen is the first sign of the desire to enter into relationship.”
📖 Listen to the Word of God.
Conversion begins there.
A real, deep listening… that touches the heart 💛
👥 But also listening to every person.
A glance exchanged on the street.
An unexpected encounter.
Someone who simply needs to be heard.
Dare to stop.
Dare to be moved.
And discover that, in the end, it is we who are transformed…
Opened to an Other who is greater ✨
❓ What place does God’s Word have in my daily life?
❓ How much do I allow myself to be transformed by it?
“Prayer isn’t my thing…”
“It’s too complicated…”
“I don’t hear anything…”
🙏 And yet, it’s like in everyday life.
When a friend speaks, sometimes one sentence touches us for no clear reason.
With God’s Word, it’s the same… but deeper.
The only thing needed is:
💛 a willing heart
🧠 an open mind
👂 a listening attitude
The Lord speaks… if we give Him space.
🔥 Lenten challenge:
Take 5–10 minutes each day to read the Gospel or the daily readings.
Don’t know where to find them?
📩 Write to us!

🌵 Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert. Bef 🌵 Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert.
Before beginning His mission, He faced the test.
There, He was tempted 🤯
Tempted to be someone different.
Tempted to choose power, applause, the easy way.
But He chose the Father’s way.
A Kingdom of ✌️ Peace, ⚖️ Justice and ❤️ Love.
And me…
What are my “deserts”?
What temptations push me to seek recognition, to dominate others, to always be right, to refuse forgiveness?
What leads me away from true Peace?
The desert is not punishment.
It is a place of truth.
It’s where I decide who I want to be.
Today ask yourself:
👉 Am I choosing the path that gives life… or the one that only feeds my ego?
#WeAreACI #aci_handmaids #aci_esclavas #Lent2026 #BeCloserToGod
🌿 Ash Wednesday. Lent begins! ⏳ 40 days. 40 days t 🌿 Ash Wednesday.
Lent begins!
⏳ 40 days.
40 days to draw closer to the Lord.
40 days to let ourselves be transformed, little by little, by His Love.
To guide us, three simple and powerful practices:
🙏 prayer
🍞 fasting
💛 charity
Lent is like climbing a mountain 🏔️
The path is beautiful… but demanding.
To reach the top, we need to travel light: let go of what weighs us down and focus on what truly matters.
But remember: we don’t all carry the same backpack 🎒
Each of us has a unique journey.
👉 What do I truly need to live this Lent well?
👉 What effort am I ready to make to grow closer to God?
To inspire you, we invite you to read a text by Father Yves Raguin on our website (link in the bio). ✨

One call for all… expressed in different ways ✨ We One call for all… expressed in different ways ✨
We continue with Montse and Jessica in our series of questions about vocation.
“Vocation” comes from the Latin vocare, which means “to call.” And there is no doubt about it: we are all called. But to what?
There are so many possible vocations: teachers, nurses, caregivers… each one taking care of others in their own way. In another way, vocation to marriage, to religious life, to consecrated single life…
And yet, what God calls us to is one and the same call for everyone ❤️
What is it?

Mercedes Quartino, a doctor and missionary for man Mercedes Quartino, a doctor and missionary for many years in Cameroon and Congo, now practicing in Argentina, shares with us a glimpse of her experience with the sick. When we feel powerless, we have, like the Lord, the power of Love ❤️: through a gesture, a word, or simply our presence.
On this World Day of the Sick, may we be that comforting presence of Jesus, the Good Samaritan, who cares for the one on the roadside, heals their wounds, and entrusts them to an innkeeper to recover.
Let us pray for all our sick 🏥, those who accompany them 🤝, and the caregivers who take care of them in hospitals or at home 🏡.

Today, on the World Day of Prayer and Reflection a Today, on the World Day of Prayer and Reflection against Human Trafficking, we remember the life of Saint Josephine Bakhita, patroness of the victims of trafficking and slavery. 
Her life and testimony remind us that human trafficking is a grave injustice, and that every person deserves to live free, with dignity and respect. 
🙏 Today we join in prayer for all who still suffer from trafficking and slavery, so they may find protection, justice, and a future full of freedom and peace. 💛🕊️
