About 90 Day Fiat

My Fiat journey started in 2020, and has only grown from there. I created the official Fiat 90 group for young women like myself, and it has been life changing - literally. Being held accountable and encouraged by young ladies my age who were striving for holiness and sainthood as much as I am was inspiring. My spiritual life really blossomed, as did my friendships with the girls as we grew closer through prayer and thoughtful discussions. Graces somehow seemed to become more abundant as my eyes were opened to God’s direct hand in my life, and I’m sure many of the girls would agree with me on that.

The whole basis of Fiat 90 is to do our best to imitate Mother Mary and her Son, Jesus Christ. Fiat 90 follows the journey of Mary through part of the liturgical year, including the Passion, and then ends on Easter. Throughout the 90 days we meditate on the Gospels and Jesus and Mary’s lives through those times. The Fiat in Fiat 90 is representative of Mary’s Fiat. As women we are all called to imitate Mary in our actions and thoughts no matter our vocation, whether religious, married, or single. We need to find out what God is saying to us in our lives, and give Him our Fiat. The 90 in Fiat 90 stands for the 90 day spiritual  bootcamp that we’ll be going through to prepare for Jesus’s resurrection.

Obviously God wants us to take care of ourselves, but in the right way. The so-called “self-care” of the world today focuses just on our bodies and minds, and is actually very toxic and harmful to the most important part of ourselves: our souls. We are not just body, but body and soul. Thus, we need to act accordingly. Fiat 90’s goal is to bring the three sections (body, soul, and mind) together in near-perfect unity to better serve our Lord. Every day we’ll be following the guidelines, and we'll be meeting weekly (on Sundays) as a group to grow in solidarity and sorority, as well as learn how to apply God’s Word to our daily lives.
