Happy New
Year 2015
Christmas
doesn't end on December 25th; in fact we're still celebrating!
The children
of Orphan Center “Arc en Ciel” of
Bozoum they too celebrated Christmas, but they went on and for them the Wise
Men are already arrived
During this
Christmas time I continue to meet friends, parishes and communities. Before
Christmas I was in the area of Como and Milan. I met first the Association
"Friends for the Central African Republic". Then I did visit the
parish of Cassina Amata, where I could meet quite a number of people available to
take care of the needy.
Tuesday is
traditionally market day in Cuneo, and I had the joy of meeting Colonel Lanteri,
who last August had welcomed
me and treated in the field hospital of the French army in Bangui. He returned
to France, and during these days he came to Cuneo with his family. With him and
his family we toured the city. Saturday night I celebrated the Eucharist in the
parish of San Lorenzo in Peveragno, a small community but very thoughtful and caring.
And now we
too are ending Year 2014. Which can be our wishes? A lot: health, work, quiet times, peace.
Peace to the
Central African Republic. Peace to the entire world. And In all of us the so much
needed inner peace.
But the most
important wish: being able of allowing God to enlighten us, our God who madly
loves us. Saint Augustine says: “Which greater grace from God could shine upon
us? Having an only Son, God made Him son of man, and vice versa He made the son
of man, son of God. Search for the credit, the reason, the righteousness of
this, and see if you find anything other than a gift of love”.
Happy New Year
to all!
