QUESTION6

If I become a member of the Holy Family Institute, how will I receive instruction and get to know other HFI members?

Once you have joined the Holy Family Institute, Fr. Tom will send you a letter, written materials and an audio tape each month. You will also receive occasional videos. These instructions, on the history of the Pauline Family, our Holy Family Institute, Pauline Spirituality and the Holy Family Institute Apostolate are easy to understand and can be studied at your leisure, during the month. Fr. Tom wants to receive a letter, (it can be short), from each member before the 10th of each month, in order to monitor your progress and answer any questions that you may have.

After you have joined the Holy Family Institute, Fr. Tom will put you in touch with other Holy Family Institute members in your area. The members also keep in touch with each other by phone and letter. This contact usually comes about as a result of our yearly Triduum (Retreat), where we meet and develop friendships with other HFI members, from all over the United States.

Also, for you and our members on the Internet, we have added the "Meet Our Members" Page to our Website. Now we can keep in touch with each other through E-mail as well as with postal mail.
