EN | IT | FR – I was told this story which comes from Africa: during a Mass some faithful moved to drop their mite in a tray. A small African child seeing that his turn had arrived, and not having any coin, found nothing better than to put himself in the tray. He had nothing to offer other than himself. What better gift can we do that the gift of ourselves!
EN | FR | IT – The attacks in early January, a drama that becomes a spectacle. The attacks in the Bardo Museum, a drama that becomes a spectacle. The crash of Airbus A320, the carnage in the Mediterranean, drama which become a show. And I quote only the most recent examples. So, where does the information finishes and where does the show start?
EN | FR | IT – More than 2000 years after the death and resurrection of Christ, many millions of men, women, children, have worldwide founded their hope on him and found in him the strength to love and forgive. This is what Pope Francis wants to celebrate summoning a Year of Mercy. It will begin on December 8th, 2015, and end on November 20th, 2016. In this way he wanted to hit like a punch to put Christians in the face of the madness of faith, of love and forgiveness.
EN | FR | IT – The sinking of Sept. 12, caused by the smugglers, which destroyed the lives of nearly 500 people in the Mediterranean Sea, was “one of the worst” accidents in recent years, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Meanwhile – a sign that candidates to leave Africa are more and more numerous – the Italian Navy reportedly rescued nearly 2,380 people last weekend, in the framework of the ‘Mare Nostrum’ programme. Near Calais, in the Pas de Calais region in France, the many exiles who have been living for more than twelve years in precarious and humiliating conditions highlight the problem of the presence of foreigners on our territory.
