Welcome to the FIAT USA Headquarters!
Father John Catoir and I are delighted that you
are interested in knowing more about FIAT. Our Blessed Mother said "yes" to the
Holy Spirit at the Annunciation. In the Bible her words were "Be it done to me
according to your word," from the Latin translation "FIAT mihi secundum verbum
tuum," thus the word FIAT, Mary's "yes" to God.
At Pentecost once again the Holy Spirit came to bring Christ to the world. On
the birthday of the Church twelve frightened Apostles were emboldened by the
Spirit to go forth and proclaim the Good News of God's love. Mary was praying to
the Holy Spirit with the apostles at the time.
We believe a new Pentecost is dawning in the Church today. By uniting with Mary
and praying to the Holy Spirit for wisdom and strength, we become today's
apostles.
We hope you will become part of the FIAT family, and we thank you for your
interest. May the Lord be your strength and your joy.
In His Love,
Deacon Karl Bayhi
