Through this mini-website I wish to share with the readers reflections, meditations, prayers, experiences, pictures and insights into the process of formative Christian Spirituality.

Noble knight, leader of the brave array,
Lead us on, O lead us on;
We will fight ’Neath thy sway, 'neath thy sway;
What the foes gather near, we don’t fear, we don’t fear!
We’ll not shun, we’ll not quit this our noble career;
We will fight ever true till death to thee;
True to God, to faith and thee, true to thee.
Lead us on gallantly, ever more valiantly,
Neath thy banner to fight, for the Church and its rights
“All for God’s own greater glory” is our cry, our battle cry.
Not for gain, nor in vain is our strife in this life,
But for God, who is our king all our hearts to him we bring… Growing…
Stronger and stronger as fighting lasts longer
And purer and purer to make heaven surer, with crosses and
Trials and many denials will stop… but to die:
Loyal to our king who reigns on high
Ignatius lead us on, till we die!----------------------------vmalpan@gmail.com
May the Experience of the Crucified and Risen Lord be the source of Peace, Joy and Reonciliation in the Pilgrimage of our life!
Formative Christian Spirituality
WE ARE CREATED TO PRAISE, REVERENCE AND LOVINGLY SERVE GOD IN EVERY PERSON, EVENT AND CIRCUMSTANCE OF OUR LIFE. BY DOING SO WE PARTICIPATE IN GOD'S OWN LIFE AND LOVE.
