The tone was set by RELAF with morning prayer that was very conducive to start the reflection on Saturday's theme: Consecrated Life & Interior Life.

| Brother Álvaro |
Our Superior General, Brother Álvaro, gave a personal reflection on the theme and so invited us to reflect more deeply on its significance and importance in our lives as Brothers. It is in our daily lives that we are invited to live the Gospel values and thus become witnesses of a personal relationship with Jesus, one that is simple and unpretentious. It is in this way that we can become true "members of the body" and more authentic and real Brothers for those people that we encounter on a daily basis. As Brother Álvaro said, "It is in our everyday lives that we are called to live a personal relationship with God in a simple way. This relationship is a dialogue, founded on grace that is made manifest in love for all persons, living beings, things and the world (44th General Chapter)."
I am very grateful to all of the Brother Delegates because I was able to get a glimpse of the spirit that permeated throughout the entire day. It was in this spirit that we continued with the rest of the schedule and were able to rediscover the great gift that is contained within the gift of our consecration, our vocation as Brothers of the Christian Schools.
I would like to thank Brother Álvaro for his inspiring and humbling words and to all the Brothers present during the Assembly for their continued support and inspiration. We, the Brothers from RELAN, are keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers.
Live Jesus in our hearts... Vive Jésus dans nos coeurs... Viva Jesús en nuestros corazones... Forever! À jamais! ¡Por siempre!
--Brother Anwar Martínez
