  Lasallian honor our Saints and Blessed. Their examples encourage us to achieve the glory of God day after day, with faith and zeal, contributing to the salvation of those who are put in us (Cfr. Brother's rule, 79)
  
  God, who guide and rule the history with wisdom and love, is present nowadays in many ways; one of them are dear Brother Victorino's testimonies of life and works.
  
  We also thank those people who announce to us the favors the Lord God granted them through our Brother.
  
  We feel in all of it the very close presence of God. The memory of Brother Victorino encourage us to participate like him, enthusiastically and fervently, in the educational mission that God put in us nowadays. His contribution with the Young Cuban Catholics was a very good view of life of share the lasallian charisma with the laymen and laywomen and, in that point, he got ahead of what we are living today, with the Institute, the Association and the shared Mission.
  
  His example must encourage us, remembering with another of our lasallan writings, that God loves so much young people that He consecrate them his Saints (Declaration 53,3)
