The announcement of an Institution, not to read but to live and share with people to congregate. I asked the Lord: How can I gather, how can I call the people to this Institution of yours? The answer was not long in coming: “Don’t be afraid, I’ll send you the people”. And so it was. Thanks to God and to the unforeseeable cooperation of prepared and committed people, the Institution Crown of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary is spreading.
I’ve been a member of the Institution ever since a Marianite I had met in December 2011, during a pilgrimage, handed me a letter with a lovely poem about Eluana Englaro that Jesus himself had dictated to Anna Maria. Then, also because I am attracted by the purpose of the Institution: “Truth and Love”.
I met Father Gianfranco and Anna back in 1979. I was twenty years old. Ever since, they have been a beacon of light of increasing intensity in my life, a sure guide to the hoped-for homeland of a New Eden still on Earth, a certain prelude to the joy of the heavenly Jerusalem.
