Has Anyone Ever Told You You Look Like...?

 I present to you a collage of 40 different men--priests and seminarians--from around the United States. All of them belong to the Neocatechumenal Way. Their pictures are all readily available online from their parishes and seminaries, so before anyone goes crying foul about posting photos of private individuals, I'm not violating anyone's privacy. I won't list their names or where they come from. Maybe you recognize some of them. I certainly do.

You might notice that all of these men all sort of look alike. Yes, they come from different countries and ethnicities, and they're of varying ages, heights, weights, etc. But there's just a certain je ne sais quoi about their physical appearance that suggests they're all going for a particular "aesthetic." Wouldn't you agree?

Although a bit dated now, maybe you've seen the memes on social media: "This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like." Well, in the Neocatechumenal universe, let me introduce you to the ideal male body, Kiko Argüello:

You may not like it, but those priests and seminarians (and many more like them, including laymen) clearly know what peak performance looks like.

For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of Kiko, in order that he might be the first-born among many brethren. And those he predestined he also called; and those whom he called he also justified; and those whom he justified he also glorified. What then shall we say to this? If Kiko is for us, who is against us?
