Today's guest on the For This Moment Podcast is Consecrated Woman of Regnum Christi Lisa Small from New Zealand. She shares her story of a deep love for Jesus in the Eucharist which led her to follow Him in the vocation to consecrated life and leaving everything, even her country, to follow His lead.

Her profound love for the spiritual family of Regnum Christi and her own experiences of suffering have not only shaped her but also led her to a personal mission of serving the whole spiritual family, accompanying them with unwavering love, prayer, and discernment.

"I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me. "I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one."-John 17: 21-24

This week's guest on the For This Moment Podcast is wife and mother Valerie Doran from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. She shares her story of discovering a deep and personal relationship with Jesus in adoration and how he led her to Regnum Christi. She opens her heart about offering Jesus her littleness and how, by being docile to the promptings of the Holy Spirit, she was given the grace to found Captivenia Girls' Camp.

Her "yes" to this mission has set a chain reaction for others to step out boldly to serve through their gifts and talents. Over the years, it has also touched the lives of thousands of young women and girls who have met Jesus through the experience of Captivenia. We never know where our yes to Jesus may lead, but it is always to something beautiful.

"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. '" — Jeremiah 29:11.
