The Apostolic Visitation of the consecrated members of the Regnum Christi movement will be completed by the end of June 2011, according to Archbishop Ricardo Blazquez of Valladolid.
The visitation of the lay movement follows the one conducted of the Legion of Christ in 2009-2010. At the conclusion of the Legion visitation in May 2010, Pope Benedict granted requests from the consecrated religious of Regnum Christi to have one of their own.
"I am here for you," Archbishop Blazquez told the consecrated members in his first letter to them this week. He expressed his "closeness and readiness" to carry out the visitation.
As the apostolic visitor, his role is "to meet people, gather information for the purpose of getting a picture of the current situation, and offer the competent authority suggestions and proposals” for resolution of those elements that must be changed.
