Joyous Celebration At RMS
Every year the seminary would hold a Christmas concert and invite the public. This year there was no Christmas concert. Instead, the Neocatechumenal Way communities gathered for a celebration at the RM Seminary tonight. The parking was packed when we got there. I knew we should have come earlier. We had to park just outside the gate and walk in. They didn't have the trolley tonight. As we neared the seminary, we looked down and saw many of the brothers seated outside where it was cooler. Inside there were many more people. The place was so crowded, and there was not enough seats for everyone. Some people had to stand at the balcony.
Afterwards, we all gathered upstairs for an agape. There were about four or five tables of food. Tables and chairs were laid out. The tables were covered with beautiful tablecloths and adorned with a floral arrangement in the center. People were laughing, joyous, and happy.
The head table was beautifully arranged with flowers, and there was a bottle of champagne for each priest. Was it champagne or wine? I could never tell. At any rate, there were smiles going all around as we drank, ate, and watched a slide show of all the achievements RMS brought to this island. We listened to the Christmas songs played in the background, and we rejoiced, knowing that God our Father has much bigger plans for the Neocatechumenal Way communities in Guam.
The seminarians also surprised us by holding a show for us. They entertained us with their joyful singing in the various languages of their countries. We recall all the successes that RMS in Guam has brought. 17 priests ordained for the Archdiocese of Agana. The many vocations coming from the NCW that lead to the life of the priesthood, the religious life, married life, or an itinerant life. We celebrated because we have local brothers and sisters as itinerants. We have local mission families. We have families open to life, bringing in many children. Marriages that were on the brink of divorce have been saved. Many of those couples whose marriages were saved celebrated with us tonight. We have much to rejoice in. Although RMS is closing, we will not forget the fruits it brought. And it was because of this man that these fruits were born here. God bless you Archbishop Anthony Apuron. We love you!
