The Encounter NYC is a once-a-month event for young people wishing to Encounter Christ.
First, we encounter Jesus through an hour of Eucharistic Adoration with music and guided meditation, where we elevate our minds and hearts to our eternal Father in and with Christ present on the altar. During this time there is the opportunity to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation and rid ourselves of any sins or faults through the priest acting in persona Christi.
Next, we encounter our Divine Brother through the Arts. Each month we provide a cultural experience with one or more persons sharing their life and spirituality via artistic presentations. We try to make each month uniquely distinct by inviting people from diverse backgrounds and different artistic gifts (including dance, music, art, acting, film,...).
Finally, we encounter Christ through one another within small Communities, where we share our personal inspirations, fruitions, and experience with the help of the Holy Spirit. We end with a Reception, sharing food and fellowship.
We cordially invite you to join us.

The Trisagio:
The Trisagio is prayed in this manner:
Our father ...
Hail Mary... (Pray for us sinners, so that we may be saints)
Glory Be to the father and to the son and to the holy spirit
The above is repeated three times with three intentions
1. We ask Mary's intercession with the Father for the sanctity of all humanity.
2. We ask Mary's intercession with Christ for the sanctity of the church
3 We ask Mary's intercession with the Holy Spirit for our own sanctity.
Background of the Trisagio:
Fernando Rielo, founder of the Idente Missionaries, affirms that the "Idente Rosary" has the form of a Trisagium. The invocations of this trisagio refer to three fundamental truths regarding Mary: Daughter of the Father, Mother of the Word, and spouse of the Holy Spirit.
The word "trisagio" means "three times holy" and signifies a hymn dedicated to the Blessed Trinity, God Who is "three times holy". As we resite, three consecutive times, the Our Father with three Hail Marys and Glory Be, we confess the three fundamental truths
With the first Our Father followed by three Hail Marys and one Glory Be, we glorify Mary, favored Daughter of the Father, the holiness of the Father.
With the second Our Father, followed by three Hail Marys and one Glory Be, we glorify Mary, Mother of Christ, the holiness of the Son.
With the second Our Father, followed by three Hail Marys and one Glory Be, we glorify Mary, Mystical Spouse of the Holy Spirit, the holiness of the Holy Spirit.
The Trisagio is therefore a hymn of praise raised to the Blessed Trinity through the supplicant omnipotence of our heavenly Mother. It is a mystical hymn that makes us exclaim, with eternal words, the holiness of the Father, the holiness of the Son, and the holiness of the Holy Spirit.
