The Founding of Los Consagrados del Santisimo Salvador Father Straub was asked, Why did you found the new Orders, Los Consagrados y Consagradas del Santisimo Salvador?

He replied,

Existentially, the question is ‘does God want this?'
I had to pray about that. It took two or three years to learn that God wanted it.

Does God want it? It's not a question of need. Any person with apostolic zeal can see there is a tremendous need. So the question really is not, ‘Why would I do this' or ‘Why would this sinner embark on such a thing?' The only thing that would enable it is that God does want a new Order.

The Apostles planted the Gospel and the Church throughout the known world by means of preaching. There is in the world a terrible lack of preaching: preaching of the Gospel without embellishments, without shying away from what is not popular, without fear of ridicule, without fear of irrelevance (because the Savior is never irrelevant), without fear of martyrdom. There is a terrible need of preaching that is beautiful and powerful and true. For lack of such preaching civilization is in the throes of destruction. That is why I founded the Orders. To preach the Saving Truth. All I needed to be sure that God wanted the two new Orders was the approval of the Church that Jesus founded, and I went ahead without looking back.

We are looking for character, personality in the right sense of the word. We're looking for people who are willing to follow the call to be holy and to evangelize.
