"During my birth my Divine Mama made me a beautiful surprise with her acts, with her love - with the Life of my Will which she possessed. She formed my Paradise on earth. She did nothing other than braid the whole Creation with her love, laying seas of beauty - making me enjoy our divine beauties within which her beauty was shining. How beautiful my Mother was - how beautiful to find her in the whole of Creation; she made me enjoy her beauty and the beauty of her acts. She spread her sea of love to make me find her love - my Paradise of love - in all created things. I delighted and exulted in my Mama’s seas of love. She made for me, in my Will, the most beautiful tunes and the most delightful concerts, so that her little Jesus would not miss the music of the Heavenly Fatherland. My Mother took care of everything, so that nothing would be lacking of the enjoyment of the Paradise I had left. She kept forming, in each one of her acts, new joys to make me happy. By just leaning on her Heart I could feel such harmonies and contents as to be enraptured." (Volume 36. December 25, 1938. Writings of Servant of God Luisa Luisa Piccarreta).
December 8, 2009. - In the Feast of the Immaculate Conception we wish you and all of those who are with you in the Divine Will that our Blessed Mother may enclose the Divine Will in our soul, that It may take Its first place, and form in it Its throne and Its dwelling.
English and Italian sections for the Website of the Hours of the Passion have been published.
Let us dedicate to Our Immaculate Queen the Web Page of the Hours of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the English and Italian versions, which have been published on this date.
Let us remember that this Website www.horasdelapasion.org was inaugurated in the feast of Asunción of Virgin Mary, this same year, and arose by the initiative of several priests, both diocesan and religious and of different nationalities and movements of the Divine Will who have met to share about the doctrine of the Divine Will in several occasions.
Visit now:
August 15, 2009.- We want to introduce this new website www.horasdelapasion.org, born on this special day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven to whom we entrust it with the utmost confidence.
In recent years several priests, both diocesan and religious and of different nationalities and movements of the Divine Will, have been meeting to share about the doctrine of the Divine Will, about their experiences, and creating unity among them and the members of their groups.
During the last meeting held at the Sanctuary of the Blessed Sacrament in Hanceville, Alabama, in January 2009, decided to pray together with The Hours of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and to form a Living Clock among them. They also proposed to encourage the members of their groups to pray, using particularly The Hours of the Passion, for the triumph of the Kingdom of Divine Will and the unity of the various associations and movements that have been emerging around the Divine Will, as given in the writings of the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta.
We continue working on that, for the new site of the Hours of the Passion will be also available in other languages, as soon as possible; firstable in Italian and English, and, God willing, also in French, Portuguese and German (if you want to help as a volunteer translator, please write to: correohdv@divvol.org).
Let us pray together in order that the goals that God has inspired this group of priests, give abundant fruit for the greater glory of God through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother.
August 15, 2009.- Full of feelings of joy and hope we have received the announcement of the creation of a new website dedicated to the Priests in the Divine Will: www.priestinthedivinewill.org. Almost at the same time that the website of the Hours of the Passion (www.horasdelapasion.org) was published, we received the news of the publication of these new space on the internet.
This new space for priests, was also born by the initiative of one of the priests of the Group of Alabama (a group of priests who participated last January in the retreat- meeting in Huntsville, Alabama-USA).
We also entrust to the Blessed Virgin Mary this site, that will be available only in English for the moment.
February 1st, 2009.
With immense joy, we want to share with you the pictures of the gathering and retreat that we had with English speaking priests.
The gathering took place from January 26 to January 30, in a retreat house for priests in the Sanctuary of the Blessed Sacrament, located in Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in Huntsville, Alabama. This monastery was founded by the Reverent Mother Angelica, who is also the founder of EWTN – the famous Catholic TV channel; because of her illness, she is now retired yet continues to live there. We pray for her in order that the Divine Will continues to strengthen her in this illness.
The gathering took place in an environment of prayer, recollection, fraternity, and a great spirit of unity. I cannot express in words the amazing joy that we all lived during those days. It was like being in heaven, each one sharing their knowledge and experience on the Kingdom of the Divine Will. Those days were enlightened in an extraordinary manner by the writings of the Servant of God Luisa Picarreta.
In this environment of unity, we agreed on forming a Living Clock; that is to say, that each of the priests promised to pray a daily Hour of the book “The Hours of the Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ”, written by Luisa Picarreta and published for the first time by Saint Hannibal di Francia in 1917. Of course, needing 24 people to complete the Living Clock, besides the priests present in the retreat, some of the religious sisters of Our Lady of the Angels Monastery joined us in this prayer.
I ask all of you in the name of all these priests and many others in the world, to pray for us so that the Kingdom of God will be totally manifested in each one of us.

Medellín, August 31, 2007.
At Holy Mass presided by His Excellency Monsignor Alberto Giraldo Jaramillo, Archbishop of Medellin, during his visit to the Community of this city, he expressed, "This Holy Mass is a historical event in the life of every one of us. This encounter with the Lord should leave a mark in our lives as a moment of grace." (These were his words at the beginning of Holy Mass).
Our monthly Spiritual Retreat for the month of August that was attended by more than one hundred people was directed by Fr. Pedro Rubio Hdv and concluded with the celebration of Holy Mass.
In the meantime, we pray for a fruitful spiritual retreat in strict silence, which Fr. Pedro is holding from September 1-3 with the internal members of the Community in Medellin, after having completed a similar type of retreat with the internal members of the Community in Barranquilla, a few weeks ago.
Let us pray and give thanks to God!.
Barranquilla, August 15, 2007. As in the past years the members of the Community of Barranquilla get together on the above mentioned Solemnity at the Plantation known as “El Callao” to celebrate Holy Mass and to spend the day together in fraternal happiness.
This year, we enjoyed the presence of Monsignor Victor Tamayo, Auxiliary Bishop for the Archdiocese of Barranquilla, who presided the Holy Mass along with Fr. Jose Antonio Valle, Parish Priest at the Vicinity of Salgar, and Fr. Pedro Rubio HDV, General Coordinator for the Community.
Several children and youngsters from the Foundation “Futuros Valores” (one of the Community’s Apostolate) received their First Holy Communion and Confirmation. Also present were some of the internal members of the Community, all the kids and youngsters from the Foundation “Futuros Valores”, the directors and workers for several of our apostolate works as well as some of the external members of the Community.
It was a day of many blessings and we are thankful to God.
Barranquilla, July 27, 2007. Last Friday July 27, during the pastoral visit that Monsignor Victor Tamayo did to the Parish “Our Lady of the Graces of Torcoroma” the Auxiliary Bishop for the Archdiocese of Barranquilla kindly granted an audience to the members of the Community Son of the Divine Will.
During the meeting, attended by close to one hundred people, Fr. Pedro Rubio hdv, Coordinator for the Community, informed Monsignor Tamayo of the several activities carried out by the Community within the mission of the local Parrish. Monsignor Tamayo was very pleased and in the name of the Church, exhorted all members and volunteers to continue with their mission. Most of all, he extolled the Community members for their firm commitment to a life of continuous spiritual formation and daily prayer (minimum 15 minutes a day) with the intention of praying constantly.
Monsignor Tamayo reminded everyone of the quote attributed to Saint Louis, King of France, who said, “Whoever does not take a little time for Holy Mass, will have plenty of time to fail during the day.”
Monsignor Tamayo also reminded us of the Servant of God John Paul II, who constantly invited the faithful to, “do the will of God joyfully.” Then, he encouraged the Community to make the Holy Father’s words their own, and to spread their enthusiasm to the rest of the Church so that they will allow themselves to be welcomed by the Merciful Heart of Jesus. » See the pictures..
