Andres and Ale Jimenez

Since the day we were married everything has been so incredible: our honeymoon, our trip to Monterrey, the 3,000 km journey to El Salvador. We have felt like we are in family, with the hope of helping Regnum Christi to grow here in El Salvador lending a hand to those who are already giving so much of themselves to fulfill this same mission.

We have been graced with having the opportunity to see the beautiful results of our work here as co-workers. One example of this is a boy from Guatemala who we visited once a month and now is on his way to the minor seminary, even though he had not been able to join the boys club being that he lived too far away. There is no doubt that God is at work within our souls but his rhythm and logic are quite different from our own. God

has showered every kind of blessing on us in our marriage, our work, our lives because he is a loving Father. My only hope is that I will live with enough faith to always be faithful when the going gets tough.

The more I learn about Full-Time Catechists, the more I am surprised by its magnitude. It encompasses everything and everyone: Bishops, Pastors, businessmen, Regnum Christi members like myself, everyone who wants to serve the Church. The work of those who preceded me was excellent. They trained a group of Catechists with a solid formation and great apostolic zeal. The grandeur of the mission is impressive, as it always has been since my days as a coworker. I have been here for a while and I still have not been able to cover all the areas that I am responsible for. I need to get to know the 75

evangelizers, their Pastors, their families, and where they work. Yet each day I wake up with a renewed desire to work and I feel extremely blessed to be able to lend a hand in this program. Each day brings new battles against the enemies of the Church and the enemies of my soul but I know that Christ is with me, that he confides in me for this mission so I have every reason to trust in him as well. Each day I ask our Lord that he fill me with himself so I can share him with others. If I am not filled with him, than I´ll be wasting my time.

We live very close to where we work so Ale and myself can eat together every day. I´m falling more and more in love with her. I admire her so much because she is just a wonderful companion who gives of herself in everything that she does and with her feminine qualities she turns our house into a home.

We have absloutely everything that we need: God, work, apostolate, enough money, a truck to be able to bring God´s word to others, and a very nice house. We have so much that sometimes we get nervous knowing that God asks for much from those who he has given much. But I believe that everything has its moment and for now we just have to faithful with what God is asking from us presently. The future is in God´s hands. May he help us to be holy and faithful. My apostolate will be giving spiritual support to all of the other Catechists and Ale will be helping out with Familia Unida, an apostolate to help unite families.

Affectionately, Andres
