Way of Life
Community of Love Crucified
The vocation of the Love Crucified Community is to live passionately His love revealed at the Cross. There we receive the gift of His thirst, His gaze, His tears, His radical love which holds nothing back. Now He calls us to respond.
The Lord has given our Community this standard:
“ Suffer all with Me, no longer two but ONE, in my sacrifice of love"
As brothers and sisters we enter into a covenant with Christ and with each other to live fully this love in the heart of the Church, according to our spirituality (The Simple Path to Union with God) and mission.
At first, commitments may seem to be a burden, but the Lord promised: "My yoke is easy and my burden is light." -Matthew 11:30. "Sanctity does not consist first of all in doing extraordinary things, but in letting God act" -Pope Francis. God's grace makes this way of life liberating and joyful through love. It disposes us to receive a new life in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Our way of life embraces the following commitments:
1. Lives centered on the Eucharist
2. Marian Consecration
3. Docility to the Holy Spirit
4. Live The Simple Path to Union with God: Our Spiritual Formation Book
5. Victims of Love + Offering life for others; for priest
6. 5 Stones: Humility, Purity, Simplicity, Trust, Courage
7. Repentance and Conversion
8. Community Life
9. Obedience to Mother Church
10. Fidelity to our state in life
I propose to do ever what is most perfect. I propose to seek in all things Jesus and His Cross, in conformity with His holy will. I propose in my actions to pursue the interests of Christ and not my own. ...I will never be disquieted should circumstances prevent me from observing my 'Rule of life.' I will go on tranquilly. I will be flexible in the face of difficulties, humbly... then onward, ever onward! -Extract from her "Rule of life", Ven. Concepción Cabrera de Armida, Aug 21, 1894
1. Lives Centered on the Eucharist
The Eucharist is Christ, our life, the source and summit of all we are and do.
We seek to participate in Holy Mass daily, if possible.
At Holy Mass we unite with Jesus as His victim souls in His sacrifice of love to the Father. We go to die to self and receive new life in Him. We become living hosts. We offer ourselves with Jesus to the Father after the consecration of the Precious Blood with this prayer.
We commit to a minimum of once a week of adoration before the Blessed Sacrament to listen, adore, praise, intercede, give thanks, and accompany and CONSOLE Jesus and Mary in their suffering for souls.
For their work, prayers and apostolic endeavours, their ordinary married and family life, their daily labour, their mental and physical relaxation, if carried out in the Spirit, and even the hardships of life if patiently borne-all of these become spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ (cf. 1 Pt 2:5). During the celebration of the Eucharist these sacrifices are most lovingly offered to the Father along with the Lord’s body. Thus as worshipers whose every deed is holy, the lay faithful consecrate the world itself to God. John Paul II
See teaching Fr Jordi Rivero>>
2. Marian Consecration
To come to the most perfect intimate union of love with Christ—victim united to Victim— we need to consecrate ourselves to Mary, Mother and Bride, with the understanding and abandonment that she will bring us to the foot of the Cross. We commit to be forever "Totus Tuus" (All yours).
See “Importance of Consecration” letter from Lourdes Pinto to community>>
33 Days to Morning Glory -Preparation to Marian Consecration. by Fr Michael E. Gaitley, MIC; Marian Press.
Renew our consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
Daily Recitation of the Rosary
3. Docility to the Holy Spirit
We live in the Spirit attentive to God and submitting to Him everything we do. We ask of Him in every situation, “Lord what do you want of me?” We trust in the Holy Spirit and invoke Him constantly.
See “Importance of Consecration” letter from Lourdes Pinto to community>>
“Yet there is no greater freedom than that of allowing oneself to be guided by the Holy Spirit, renouncing the attempt to plan and control everything to the last detail, and instead, letting him enlighten, guide and direct us, leading us wherever he wills.” Pope Francis p. 13
We welcome the Holy Spirit as our teacher and guide through living the Simple Path. It is He who leads us through the passage -- from the feet of Jesus crucified to receive the gift of self-knowledge, into the Sacred Heart of Jesus and brings us into the unity of the Most Holy Trinity.
“God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us” (Rom 5:5). Nevertheless, it is not enough to know the Spirit; we must welcome Him as the guide of our souls, as the “Teacher of the interior life” who introduces us to the Mystery of the Trinity, because He alone can open us up to faith and allow us to live it each day to the full.” Pope Benedict XVI, XXXIII World Youth Day, 2008
4. Live The Simple Path to Union with God: Our Spiritual Formation Book
Each Mother of the Cross (MOC) and Missionary of the Cross (MC) must be willing to allow The PATH to lead them through the painful purification and healing of their hearts into the depth of self- knowledge. Each person must persevere to:
Follow Christ daily to the Cross,
To die to self—to what we have become that we are not,
To make ourselves vulnerable and stripped of our masks and false identity
And suffer ALL with Christ, in order to be transformed into Love.
5. Victims of Love
Our life is an offering of love. Our crosses, including the injustices we suffer, as well as the daily duties, are powerful when done with great love and united with Christ. God waits for the FIAT that signals our total surrender. We don’t just offer something; we offer ourselves without reserve, our entire being, our will, our heart, our body and soul, one with Him. This is to be with Christ victims of love.
It is a victim soul's 'yes' that 'stirs into flame' the power of the Holy Spirit so that the Holy Spirit can lead a docile and willing soul to die with Me. It is this voluntary death that brings the soul to new life…I continue to thirst for love, but it is only the love of My victim souls that satisfies My thirst… Therefore, bring Me many victim souls. 2/1/11 Simple Path #124 p.331
See “Victim of Love” by Fr Jordi Rivero>>
6. 5 Stones: Humility, Purity, Simplicity, Trust and Courage
The MOC and MC must be committed to growing in these five virtues as we persevere in living the Simple Path and taking to heart the teachings of this community.
Virtues Needed as Warriors of Love
My little one, the time draws near. You hold the sword of the Spirit in the mission given to you. My family of LC are My warriors of love that will defeat the dragon in the decisive battle that draws near. Be ready to approach this evil in the same way that David approached Goliath. You will conquer the dragon in your littleness and purity because it is.
God who is with you. You must not fear and believe with the innocence and zeal of David… You each must also approach the battle with five stones.
1. First, the stone of humility, possessing the perfect knowledge of your nothingness and of My power and majesty.
2. Second, the stone of purity, purity of mind, heart, intention, word, desire…
3. Third, simplicity, detached from all, most especially from your ego.
4. Fourth, trust perfectly abandoned to My will.
5. Fifth, courage, courage rooted in love of Me to be perfectly obedient to My commands.
These stones are your weapons for battle, for the dragon will not be defeated according to the standards of the world but in the Light of Love… 1/18/12 Simple Path #148 p. 436
7. Repentance and Conversion
As Love Crucified, we are committed to go daily to the Cross to kiss the feet of Jesus crucified and beg the Spirit for the gift of self-knowledge, so that we can come in truth to know our sins, wounds and disordered tendencies. It is then, through this self-awareness, that we receive the gift of repentance.
Repentance is the gift of God that serves to pry open the hardened human heart so that My seeds of conversion can grow. Repentance is the Sword of the Spirit that opens the darkness within the human heart to be filled with God’s Light of truth, and the truth sets you free.
To live in repentance is to live clothed in the knowledge of who you are, which is misery, and the knowledge of who I Am, which is Love and Mercy.
To live in repentance is to live in the freedom of living in the embrace of Abba, Our Father.
Tell My souls to seek true repentance at the foot of My Cross and the power of My Love Crucified will set them free to live in My peace and the joy of My promise. 2/18/18
The soul that lives wrapped in the gift of knowledge grows in true humility and is then able to advance in My path on the wings of the Holy Spirit… It is here, at My feet, that you must persevere… 12/12/11 Simple Path #10 p.40. see full message >>
Confession: We are encouraged to go regularly to confession. There is no better way to make progress on our spiritual journey than by returning in humble repentance and love to God’s infinite mercy.

Perfect Love
Lourdes Pinto, February 16, 2023
What is perfect love? How do we attain it? Why are there few souls who enter this perfect state of union with God? The few victim souls who reach perfect love are “God’s saints of the end times to usher in His era of peace in the world.”

Do You Want to be “Partners with Demons”? Live in Fear
Lourdes Pinto – September 22, 2022
Fears hold us in bondage, paralyze us, steal our joy, and prevent us from experiencing the freedom given to us as children of God. If we do not come to know our fears and process them in Christ, we will become “partners with demons” (1 Cor.10:20) and not God’s warriors for these decisive times.

Lourdes Pinto –September 30, 2021
The Catechism teaches us that man has in his heart a law inscribed by God, a voice of conscience, that must be formed in the Word of God through the Scriptures, the Church and Tradition.

Lourdes Pinto & Fr. Jordi Rivero – September 3, 2021. AUDIO & VIDEO
It is in the power of the Mass that we, as victim souls, most perfectly unite ourselves as One with Christ to His victory on the Cross.

He challenges us to enter in deep silence into the intense suffering around us to be perfected in love. For perfect love drives out fear!

The Blood of Christ United With His Martyrs of Love Will Save the World
Lourdes Pinto & Fr. Jordi Rivero –October 22, 2020 –Text & audio
Christ's Blood is the gift of Himself, which contains the power of His love, yet it has been trampled on. The world offers Satan more innocent blood. We are called to unite the blood of the martyrs with the Lord's, to be ONE with Christ, our Spouse, to shed tears of pure love with Him. This is the power that casts out evil and propitiates a New Pentecost for the salvation of the world.

As Christ's desolations on the Cross brought forth the great fruit of salvation; we too, in our desolations, like a woman in labor pains, can bring forth the joy of new life. The union of sorrows draws us into the union of love!

Lourdes Pinto – March 26, 2020
This reflection draws us to enter the deep sorrow and “tears” the Lord sheds, not just for all humanity, but for “me” personally. He invites us to receive His tears as a gift that will draw us to pure, heartfelt repentance for our sins. He pleads for us to remain with Him, to collect His tears and present them as ONE to the Father, for our salvation and that of the whole world.
His Living Tabernacles in the World –as St. Joseph

At a time when many churches throughout the world are being closed, the Lord is forming and preparing us to be His living hosts in the world. He desires our homes and families to become His sanctuaries, where He is adored and glorified so that His presence can be truly alive in our hearts and in the world. As St. Joseph and the Blessed Mother, let us live united to the Will of the Father, in hidden prayer and deep silence as God's pure victims of love to pierce the darkness that surrounds us with the Light of Christ!
Stations of the Cross Lived with Jesus
Lourdes Pinto – February 27, 2020
Let us enter this season of Lent as a time of mourning, as a time to delve into a deep purification of heart and sincere repentance before God.

Trust: Will Jesus be Impressed with Yours?
Fr. Ron Sciera – September 13, 2019
Through examples of personal experience, Fr. Ron Sciera asserts that, as we grow in the knowledge of God's mercy, so we must grow in trust, knowing that He is with us in all situations and will bring good out of our worst trials if we trust Him. Trust is essential to become a victim of merciful love.
Hypocrisy in Me? –Purity of Intention

Lourdes Pinto – June 11, 2019
In these talks Lourdes Pinto reflects on a homily by Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa, “Blessed are the Pure in Heart for they Shall see God”, by exploring our tendency of hypocrisy. She calls us to recognize how our attitudes, words, and actions are often motivated by our desire for recognition, our need to make a good impression, and please others. The weapon against our hypocrisy begins by being attentive to our hearts and acknowledging every incident of our own hypocrisy. Only then can we begin the process of humbly correcting our heart's intentions.

Proximity, a Revolution of Tenderness
Lourdes Pinto – December 13, 2018
"I see clearly that the thing the Church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful; it needs nearness, proximity. I see the Church as a field hospital after battle." —Pope Francis
Book of Revelation: Prepare for the Battle and the Eucharistic Reign
Lourdes Pinto – November 27, 2018
The Book of Revelation helps us to see how living The Simple Path to Union with God is the preparation to be ONE with Christ, among the “144,000” saints –the holy remnant of victim souls, sealed with the power of the Cross to proclaim the glory of God’s plan, conquer Satan and usher in the Eucharistic Reign of Jesus and the New Pentecost for the Church.
Poverty, Rich Young Man
Lourdes Pinto – October 18, 2018
The Lord's words to "sell what you have and give to the poor" must be discerned by each person with the Spirit of total transparency before God wanting to truly know the "one thing that I personally lack." The spirit of poverty is allowing God to strip us interiorly of our desires, expectations, plans, attachments, securities, and consolations in order to be emptied so that we can be filled with Christ. Related to Chapter 5-D in the Simple Path
St. Paul: We are Saved by Faith
Fr. Ron Sciera – October 11, 2018
In this teaching, Fr. Ron takes St. Paul's letter to the Galatians and Romans to explain his identity and mission to profess Christ Crucified to the gentiles. Our faith and transformation come not from the law, but from Christ Crucified received by the gift of the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. This message is one central to our identity and mission in Love Crucified Like Paul, we strive to become ONE with Christ Crucified..."no longer I who live but Christ who lives in Me" (Galatians 2:20).
Crisis of Faith, What Is It About?
Fr. Jordi Rivero – September 27, 2018
Storm in the Church
—Part I
Lourdes Pinto – September 13, 2018
We are now living a storm within our Catholic Church. We need to live it in the same way we have learned to live the storms in our personal lives. How do we know when to stay quiet and when to confront?
—Part II
Lourdes Pinto – September 20, 2018
Jesus has brought to light the darkness in the Church so that she can overcome Satan's power of darkness and hiddenness. Now, there is an opportunity for repentance so that conversion, healing, and transformation can take place. In order to bring to life the darkness in others, we first must be committed to bringing to the light the darkness within ourselves.
Victim According to the Spirituality of Love Crucified
Lourdes Pinto – August 23, 2018
The vocation to be a victim soul is a total oblation to the Father in Christ. It is not based on how much we suffer. There are persons who suffer much and do not have the call to Love Crucified. This vocation is lived and confirmed by living the Simple Path to Union with God.
Crisis of Faith and Scandals
Fr. Jordi Rivero – August 9, 2018
How are we to respond to all the scandals, turmoil, despair, and crisis of faith we see around us? We are called to look at the crucified and united to His sacrifice of love bring comfort, healing, and salvation to those He places before us.
Faith; Do I Believe?
—Part I
Lourdes Pinto – July 19, 2018
God loves us and His mission so much that He desires to make our faith PERFECT. For our mission to be ESTABLISHED firmly, each of us MUST BELIEVE what the Lord has said to us. Our FAITH must be witnessed in the way we live the storms, piercings, and thorns in our flesh. If any of us continue to believe with our minds, but not in the way we act in our daily lives, then our mission and community will not be firm.

Mustard Seed
Lourdes Pinto – June 21, 2018
As the smallest of mustard seeds, the Host appears a small and insignificant piece of bread, yet contains God Almighty. Our Lord calls us His little "mustard seeds." This expression contains a great mystery for us and contains the manner in which we will be transformed into God's Living Host.
Trust Inspired by the Annunciation
Fr. Jordi Rivero – April 12, 2018
The Annunciation teaches us how God relates to us and what it means to truly trust Him. Jesus is asking us to respond like Mary, to partake in His love, as co-redeemers, to save many through the power of our hidden lives, united as One with Him. The creator of the universe begs each of us to bring his love and salvation to many.
In the World but not of the World
Lourdes Pinto – March 1, 2018 –Text & audio.
The Lord tells us: "I need souls who receive the brokenness of other souls and suffer for them as one with me solely for love, souls immersed in the darkness of this world to fight as my soldiers of light...these are my hidden victim souls in the world living through Me, with Me, and in Me. "
Solomon's Unfaithfulness
Lourdes Pinto – February 8, 2018
Like Solomon, we too run the risk of going astray, becoming proud, and being unfaithful to the Lord. Unless we fight against disordered attachments, hardened hearts, and live in the knowledge that without God's love and mercy, we too are capable of great sin.
Perseverance Through Love of the Cross
Fr. Jordi Rivero – February 2, 2018 –text only
The only way to holiness is perseverance through the love of the Cross, as St. Cyril of Jerusalem instructs us. "Even in a time of persecution, let the Cross be your joy."

Lourdes Pinto – January 18, 2018

Mount your Horses Through the Storm
Lourdes Pinto – September 21, 2017
We mount our horses by recognizing and embracing each "storm" or piercing in our lives as a great grace and believe that our hidden lives lived with great courage and zeal can defeat the darkness through the power of our silence.
Canaanite Woman's, Faith
Lourdes Pinto – August 10, 2017
Called to combat - mount horses; the contrast between the response of the Israelites (book of Numbers) and the Canaanite woman of Mt. 15:21-28.

Living Chalices
Lourdes Pinto – April 20, 2017 –audio
Before a Chalice can carry the blood of Christ, it must be purified and consecrated. We, too, must be purified and healed of the wounds we carry, if we are to be One with His blood and become Living Chalices; his vessels of mercy, love, and healing to others.
Gratitude
Lourdes Pinto – April 20, 2017 –audio
Gratitude is the opposite of resentment. How do we get rid of the hidden resentments hidden in our hearts?
Salted with Fire, Mark 9
Lourdes Pinto and Fr Ron Sciera – January 27, 2017 –audio
The Simple Path brings us into the Sacred Heart to be consumed in the fire of the Holy Spirit. This fire purifies us so that we become the image and likeness of God.
Pure Suffering
Lourdes Pinto – January 12, 2017 –text & audio
The Lord calls us to receive as He did the wombs, brokenness, and oppression of humanity so that we can radiate His light in the darkness. "Only Love radiates the light of God...Love receives her. wounds and bears them upon His body."
This teaching leads us through the steps to fruitful suffering:
1. Thank God, 2. Accept, 3. Suffer with Christ, 4. Intercede.

The Cross is the Treasure/Spiritual Motherhood
Lourdes Pinto, 2011
Mary accompanies Jesus to the Cross and becomes one heart with Him in His sacrifice of love. Mary desires to bring each soul to the Cross to be transformed into Love. The feminine heart has the capacity to love passionately and to sacrifice. This feminine force is at the heart of spiritual motherhood.
