Association FIAT -

Always say YES to God?

Gospel of today 09/06/2023

As Jesus was teaching in the temple area he said, "How do the scribes claim that the Christ is the son of David? David himself, inspired by the Holy Spirit, said: The Lord said to my lord, 'Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies under your feet.' David himself calls him 'lord'; so how is he his son?" The great crowd heard this with delight.

Mc.12, 35-37

“No matter what storm you face, you need to know that God loves you.
He has not abandoned you”
(F.G.)

The Malines Documents

Anyone who travels the path of life for a Christian needs a directional signpost.

The family is the basic cell of society, as well as of the Church.

No one can be a Christian alone. If we wish our faith to grow, we need to share it with others.

"Even today, Jesus is born of Mary and the Holy Spirit"

Cardinal Suenens

Putting prayer into action

The outpouring of the Spirit is not an event in the past that is over and done with: Pentecost, as a transformative experience brought about by the Holy Spirit, is still going on in the Church.

United with Mary

During an interview, Pope Francis speaks of the missionary Church and said: "Instead of being just a church that welcomes and receives ... let us strive to be a church that finds new roads, which is able to go out of herself and go to those who do not attend, who are gone or indifferent...

Together with Others

The FIAT Association wishes to help anyone who desires it to (re)discover the grace of his or her baptism, to live more fully their faith in Jesus Christ and to show forth this faith in all dimensions of their personal, family, professional and social lives.

A Rule of Life

Baptism is the beginning of the path of life for a Christian. Anyone who travels along this path needs a directional signpost. One needs a little rule of life. One needs food for the journey, which is the Word of God.

Prof. Dr. Jan Van der Veken, Belgium

Fr. Frederic Testaert, Abbot of the Postel Abbey, Belgium

“Always saying YES to God, with and like Mary, in the all things. That is what is important in life. That is what I recall from the FIAT spirituality.”

Sr. Camilla, Community of Our Lady of Walsingham (UK)

“We discovered the FIAT-Rosary not long after the foundation of our Community – dedicated to Our Lady of Walsingham. It spoke deeply to us because our charism is rooted in the ‘Fiat’ of Mary at the Annunciation. We say the FIAT-Rosary daily together as a community and hope to spread this devotion throughout England.”
