Fraternity of Our Lady of the Poor
The Brotherhood of Our Lady of the Poor is a religious community in the Roman Catholic Church . The order members see themselves in the succession of Brother Charles de Foucauld . They live in the spirit of the gospel . The name itself goes back to the Marian apparition "Our Lady of the Poor" from Banneux in Belgium .
Religious life is centered on prayer , the daily celebration of the Eucharist and the rosary . You live in poverty and want to share all living conditions with people. After the novitiate , the members take a religious vow and choose a monastic life in seclusion and silence.
