Voices Of Our World

Spring 2026

As we journey through Lent, Fr. Rodrigo unpacks the earlier remarks of a Maryknoll Brother who inspired him to look anew at his own vocation to mission: “I came, I saw, and I was conquered.” As Fr. Rodrigo observes, this quote captures the essence of what can take place when we approach discernment with an open heart. Mission has a way of capturing our lives — each of us in a unique way — when our hearts remain poised to encounter Christ in all things and among all peoples. Don’t be afraid of allowing your heart to conquered by God’s love.

In a brief reflection contributed by Seminarian Barrack Odeka and selected photos, we also take a look back at Maryknoll’s participation in the SEEK 2026 conference hosted by the Fellowship of Catholic University Students (FOCUS) from January 1st – 5th in Columbus, Ohio.

Our 2026 Holy Week “Come and See” Retreat, April 1st — 5th, 2026, for men discerning priesthood or Brotherhood is also coming up! Please consider joining us at our Mission Center at Maryknoll, NY, where we will journey together with Christ to a new life in God’s love.
