00:00:28,538 --> 00:00:32,675

I am David, I am from Toluca, State of Mexico in Mexico

4

00:00:34,940 --> 00:00:39,199

in my hometown

7

00:00:48,863 --> 00:00:53,127

My process in formation has been a journey always walking together with others

8

00:00:53,162 --> 00:00:55,033

never alone

9

00:00:55,068 --> 00:00:59,057

I have lived my vocation always in community

10

00:00:59,092 --> 00:01:03,816

Like all vocations are always developed and lived in community

11

00:01:03,851 --> 00:01:08,060

Always beside others, beside God

12

00:01:08,095 --> 00:01:11,783

Where we walk together the journey of His road

13

00:01:11,818 --> 00:02:15,438

I believe that to be Marist comes from the heart

14

00:02:15,473 --> 00:02:23,945

for me it means how Mary has made herself present in my life with simplicity

15

00:02:23,980 --> 00:02:29,110

Be like Mary and to be among others in simply way

16

00:02:29,145 --> 00:02:37,605

where others can stay and be with them with the warmly way of Mary

17

00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:41,750

Attentive to meaning of life among others

18

00:02:41,785 --> 00:02:47,922

with a sense of Mercy that it is the most important attitude of being Marist

19

00:02:47,957 --> 00:02:48,869

We are called to be Mercy in the world

20

00:02:48,904 --> 00:02:52,081

To be with others without put myself in the light line

21

00:02:52,116 --> 00:02:55,174

but trying to make Jesus present

22

00:02:55,209 --> 00:02:58,909

living hidden and unknown

23

00:03:15,962 --> 00:03:19,768

We have participated as family in this very important decision of David's life

24

00:03:19,803 --> 00:03:29,282

at this stage of this journey of formation with the Society of Mary

25

00:03:29,317 --> 00:03:38,420

where God has called him and in which we see him everyday growing

26

00:03:38,455 --> 00:03:42,700

We see how he has grown up, how he has matured

27

00:03:42,735 --> 00:03:48,460

In spite of be his family he has nourished us

28

00:03:48,495 --> 00:03:53,252

every time we have the opportunity to talk with him.

29

00:03:53,287 --> 00:04:02,544

We thank all the Marist community for this warm welcome they have had with David in receiving him

30

00:04:03,395 --> 00:04:05,210

in being with him, forming him

00:04:07,239 --> 00:04:10,631
