Society of
Saint John Henry Newman
«COR AD COR LOQUITUR»
Who are we?
"A heterogeneous and independent group of men dedicated to a task of self-reform, not because of any pressure from public opinion, but simply because it was necessary and right to undertake it." A company of friends who seek to assist one another in the most sublime human endeavor: the work on ourselves. That is why "we do not seek large troops, but snipers." For us, "friendship is a guarantee of fidelity and apostolic fruitfulness."
We wish to collaborate in the educational mission of families, fostering authentic friendship and integral formation among young people. Our inspirational model is Saint John Henry Newman , canonized by Pope Francis in Rome on October 13, 2019. We too desire "that the same places and the same individuals may be at once oracles of wisdom and sanctuaries of devotion; that the lay person may be a true and devout believer, and that the devout person may be cultured and able to give an account of his faith."
"Newnan is the pride of the universal Church"
Saint Pius X
"Let us thank God for the gift of John Henry Newman, a sure and eloquent guide in our perplexity."
Saint John Paul II

Pío XII
"Newman has long had a significant influence on my life and thought... he is a Doctor of the Church."
Benedict XVI

To the extent of what he judged to be true, he renounced in life that which is more than life.
Saint Paul VI
"He is one of the greatest Englishmen of recent times, a distinguished theologian and man of the Church... he deserves to be considered by all."
Benedict XVI
" Newman's conscience drove him to an absolute witness, very close to martyrdom."
Saint Paul VI
«Quiero volver a proponer la luminosa figura del Cardenal Newman, cuya figura y escritos poseen una actualidad extraordinaria»
Benedicto XVI
Lead, Kindly Light
Guide me, gentle Light, through the thick darkness,
guide me!
The night is dark, and I am far from home,
guide me!
Watch my steps;
I don't ask to see the distant scene,
the next step is enough for me.
Oremos para que, inspirados por San Francisco, experimentemos nuestra interdependencia con todas las criaturas, amadas por Dios y dignas de amor y respeto.
Señor, Tú amas todo lo que has creado,
y nada existe fuera del misterio de Tu ternura.
Cada criatura, por pequeña que sea, es fruto de tu amor
y tiene un lugar en este mundo.
Incluso la vida más breve o sencilla es rodeada por tu cariño.
Como San Francisco de Asís, hoy también queremos decir:
“¡Alabado seas, mi Señor!”
Porque a través de la belleza de la creación
te dejas ver como fuente bondadosa, Te pedimos:
abre nuestros ojos para reconocerte,
aprendiendo del misterio de tu cercanía a todo lo creado
que el mundo es infinitamente más que un problema que resolver.
Es un misterio que se contempla con gratitud y esperanza.
Ayúdanos a descubrir Tu presencia en todo lo creado,
para que, enteramente reconociéndola,
podamos sentirnos y sabernos responsables de esta casa común
donde nos invitas a cuidar, respetar y proteger
la vida en todas sus formas y posibilidades.
¡Alabado seas, Señor!
Amén.
