We are here once again so that we may see with the eyes of our hearts, and so that we may live  a strong communion with God and a with each other.
To see with the heart: there are too many young people who are afraid to do so, to look at one’s conscience, but do not be afraid, we mustn’t have fear of ourselves!
The theme that the Holy Father chose for the WYD in Sidney was “The power of the Holy Spirit will come upon you and you will be my witnesses” (Acts. 1, 8)

The plans of men, beginning with mine, tend to be exclusive and close-minded: to reach a peace that sometimes is the peace of a cemetery. The plans of God, instead, ask us to risk and try an adventure. All of us, when we start on a new path, have human plans, natural ones and even beautiful ones. But we are witnesses that, in carrying out our own plans, we fail. God is enlarging our horizons. However, what we are experiencing now is not a human plan,

01/01/1900 October
The first thing the Lord asks of us is to be free of our fear, because to stop in front of fear means to build a prison. This is the right moment to have courage to open the door and to begin this missionary journey; to be involved and suffer for the life of others, caring for their problems, their loneliness, their poverty and their difficulties.

Dear brothers and sisters, youth and children from our houses, families and friends, we start walking in this time of Lent in order to travel, like the People of Israel, in the desert of daily life passing from the slavery of sin into complete freedom, given to us through God's forgiveness which frees us from the chains of evil which have wounded our human nature.

Life is like a voyage on the sea of history, often dark and stormy, a voyage in which we watch for the stars that indicate the route. The true stars of our life are the people who have lived good lives. They are lights of hope. Certainly, Jesus Christ is the true light, the sun that has risen above all the shadows of history. But to reach him we also need lights close by—people who shine with his light and so guide us along our way. Who more than Mary could be a star of hope for us...

Twenty five years ago, God’s love started the Community Cenacolo and initiated a continuous journey of hope!  We began the first steps of this adventure trusting only in God’s love, and the hope that we had in our hearts grew and was confirmed as we witnessed the fidelity of God.
Faith in Him has kept the flame of hope alive within us, which has become service through small, welcoming, and loving gestures each day.

At the beginning of Lent, which constitutes an itinerary of more intense spiritual training, the Liturgy sets before us again three penitential practices that are very dear to the biblical and Christian tradition – prayer, almsgiving, fasting – to prepare us to better celebrate Easter and thus experience God’s power that, as we shall hear in the Paschal Vigil, “dispels all evil, washes guilt away, restores lost innocence, brings mourners joy, casts out hatred, brings us peace and humbles earthly pride” (Paschal Præconium).

A true believer cannot live his life without making himself an apostle, giving testimony to his very existence, together with and at the service of He who was the first missionary, He who has served, loved and given His own life for us: Jesus of Nazareth.
The missionary is in the heart and roots of every believer, it is a commitment, a calling, an urgency written within our faith.  “Woe to us if we do not evangelize”, remember that our actions speak louder than our words.

Holiness is a path, is a dynamic existence which brings concrete fruits. Holiness becomes love, commitment, you lose your life to let other people know God’s love. Holiness is not an abstract concept, bit is a real meeting with Jesus, which becomes serving hands, running feet, sighted eyes, giving body and blood: it is worth living that way, because it is not only you that lives but it’s Christ’s life that resides in you and gives itself to others.

01/01/1900 December
“I look for Your face, don’t hide it from me”: in Bethlehem, my Lord, Your face is revealed at last. We can see You, meet You, follow You. You live in our humanity, each man carries You inside of himself mysteriously: Your face is Love. Make us aware  and deserving of this presence of Yours, make us serve and love our brothers because in love Your faces is born again, resurrects and wins death.
If we meet You everything changes, everything becomes new, nothing is like before, we become new men and women, with a serene face and bright eyes.
Contemplating You, Jesus, we find ourselves again!

Let’s start this new year that God’s love gives us being aware that the Christian life is before all a gift  that gives us joy and  it nourishes our life with prayer, love, service to all in total gratuitousness. The possibility of doing good is in itself  such a great reward that nothing and nobody in the whole world can give us anything alike, as beautiful and rewarding: no money in the world, no bow of people, no  clapping of crowds…….can give us  the same joy that we find in living good and we have the immense fortune of being able to do it, what a “nice story!”.

The truly poor people are those who have not yet encountered love, hope, or faith There are people who own many houses, or other things and consider themselves to be wealthy. However they are actually the poorest people because the true wealth we need comes from an encounter with God. Even if you don’t own a coat, shoes, or anything but yet you have hope in your heart, you can walk barefoot on rocks and do just fine because you hold in your hands the only true treasure which is life itself.

The encounter with God today is revealed in the “fullness” of time through the Father's Word.  Jesus of Nazareth reveals to us that our life is loved by God.

The Risen Jesus is the heart of the world. He gives life to the whole Universe and He is the ray of light that shines from the empty tomb on all of humanity yesterday, today and always. Jesus’ Resurrection is a particular, special and unique event. It is
the announcement of the victory of life over death, of love over sin. Easter is the “feast of the running feet.” Everyone arrives at the tomb tired, sad and disappointed... and they leave running! The Risen Christ gives us the dynamic enthusiasm to announce the victory.

Saintity belongs to the heart of a Christian, it helps us, it’s our uniform, our full realization: it’s the way of Love in the simplicity of a life that has discovered its fullness.The Saints lead our way through life and teach us that if life is not given by God it is wasted.They witness that there is more joy in giving than in receiving, that Jesus is the true sense of life.

Among the men and women  from any time that have found  out “the treasure” of their lives there were some special boys who left a luminous trail in our Community. They had crumbled to pieces after a life full of mistakes and sorrow, they were sad and desperate. But they believed seriously in God, in friendship and praying before Jesus they discovered the great value of their lives.
In the Community they have met God, they have followed Him till the end never turning back.They became witnesses of Light and Hope for those who shared the walk from “darkness to Light”.

Mary is our Mother in faith.  She would have contemplated that baby day and night, but in faith!  Think of her wonder at the sweetness of His smile; adore with her that child, learn from her to love Him and ask her for the gift of prayer of the heart.
Happy Christmas!  With much peace, joy and love.

The Community wishes to be a sign of hope in the world, among the families, in man’s heart.
I have been living with  lost, marginalized, derelict, addicted to drugs youth for many years ,as many of you know ,but thanks to them my hope has become  truer, more concrete, more living, in a word it has turned into life.
The seed of hope is in each of us : we wish a better future, healing, good health, peace: particularly now, at the beginning of a new year, we feel in our hearts the   wish of a better future. The new year calls for a fresh start and  we are really experiencing that true hope doesn’t only mean something: it is Someone.
The Father came towards us revealing His face through the Son and our hope strikes its roots in Him

Life comes from God’s heart and He is Love.
We must discover that life is a gift which will bring us joy and nobody can make this discovery in our place.
If you stop in your life walk you go backwards .Life doesn’t only originate from the meeting between a sperm and an egg or from the encounter between mum and dad. It comes from that source of love that is God  who made us the gift of becoming his collaborators to give life.

We all love life for what we see, touch and feel but our life doesn’t belong to us, it belongs to Someone

Let’s stay in front of the Crucified particularly when the fight and the temptations are strong :there we will find peace, we will heal  from our past; there, through his Silence, Jesus teaches us to be silent too; there we  learn  what true Love is, which will change our everyday crosses into faith and new life.
Let’s fix our gaze into that Man who wanted to give each of us  deep peace and true joy, silent before provocations, resisting against the evil stirred up against him, keeping to love  and forgive in the silence of the Cross, to give us the strength to change.

Being true missionaries above all means “imitating” Jesus. The true, great missionary of the Father was Jesus:  He sacrificed himself; he left his divine nature and dressed himself in our poor human nature suffering exactly like us with fatigue, hunger, persecution, humiliation… First we must believe that the source of Love and Life is Jesus of Nazareth. 
He gave himself for us and he did it with liberty, joy, courage, and a lot of love.

“Peace on earth to those who are loved by God”
Christmas is God’s feast.  Only, divine and true Good that  gives Himself, shows Himself, takes a face, a body in the Child Jesus.  We want to live for this Good, to welcome Good, to become a part of this Good, to help others become good.  Many of us have lost this face, lost life’s objective, and lost conversation with Him, who is the author of everything.

01/01/1900 Christmas message

In the silence of one mysterious night, while the rest of humanity lives the drama of solitude, illness, hate, and rage, the God of Love reveals his identity: a Child!

From a manger, He, brings forth a light to the darkness that has covered our world, our lives.  A child comes to find us; the King of the Universe is born among humble shepherds.  The Saviour of all men has come into the world.

Today we are celebrating a great feast.  We are united, with our hearts filled with faith and joy, to an infinite assembly of men and women that have left a trail of light and love in the Church and in history.  Who are saints? If I had to define them, I would say that saints are the freest people: free from long faces, from laziness, from "indifference" and from doing things with agitation. Saints are models of freedom in forgiveness, in Love, in always starting over, in believing, in living free from every kind of slavery.

This year, the month of May should blossom, giving novelty to each day, transforming our lives (just like things change in nature) into something beautiful, something joyous.  Each day should spring forth a new flower that is more beautiful, more stupendous, more scented than the day before.  Let us try to pray the rosary with our heart

01/01/1900 June
We are immersed in the Holy Spirit which daily hugs the time of our life. The Creator Spirit renovates and makes new everything every day, and today we are that new creation. God desires to enter the roots of our story, the seasons of our past and often wounded life, because the true experience of Him becomes the germ of a new creation, the perpetual spring of the heart.
01/01/1900 September
The Church is youthful because of the strength of the people who give it life, who shed their blood, day after day without fear, finding courage and faith in the Eucharistic communion, in meeting with the crucified and resurrected body which is Christ, that in a certain moment transforms even our bodies into the Eucharist: We become more pure, more generous, more Jesus.

01/01/1900 ...visiting Rome
It was a great joy to be part of the general audience of the Holy Father, Benedict XVI.
For many of us, it was our first time visiting Rome.  The desire to see the Holy Father in person and to be able to express to him our gratitude was immense.

The Festival of Life is to celebrate life, but not life in general but even better, to celebrate your life!  Take this your life into your hands and acknowledge it for the precious, important, one of a kind gift that it is.
We are called to live our lives to the fullest.  There is something great inside of us that we can’t even imagine; there is a profound and precious world to discover and develop.

Thank you to all you youth who believe and search for authentic and concrete responses to the deeply rooted desires of your hearts.
Thank you to all who do not surrender to the illusions, the deceptions, the banalities of this stale world which is submerged in power struggles, ambitions and fruitlessness only to arrive at limited and fleeing goals.
Your hidden and underlying defiance should solicit us educators, parents

This is the hope of Easter that we walk towards Him and are never satisfied untill we have arrived. We must look ahead he who stops will be lost. If we say “enough,” we will die; if we stop walking, we fall behind. Let us go forward with the desire and will to meet Jesus who is the real answer to our questions, our “why?”. He is the answer, and we have no need to look elsewhere...

“Protect, protect, protect.” This echoed in our hearts until the end of the homily. Pope Francis, speaking about the figure of St. Joseph, the protector of the Holy Family and the Church, explained in a touchingly simple way the importance of “protecting” oneself, the people around us, and the creation—but also to protect the most poor as well as our own personal gifts...

We are still here in order to be sure that our faith is life! Think of how many times Our Lady has appeared in these centuries so that we could believe more profoundly in the strength of faith. Because it is faith that gives us strength, security, and peace; faith is our great wealth, and Our Lady lived by faith, She lived only by the strength of faith...

We live in a culture of conflict, a culture of fragmentation, a culture in which I throw away what is of no use to me, a culture of waste. Yet on this point, I ask you to think — and it is part of the crisis — of the elderly, who are the wisdom of a people, think of the children... the culture of waste! However, we must go out to meet them, and with our faith we must create a “culture of encounter”...

Dearest Mother Elvira, Father Stefano and everyone,

There are no words to express how beautiful the Festival of Life in Florida was. First of all, we were blessed with such great weather—a bright sun and gentle breeze. It was just perfect!

01/01/1900 Faith wins!
Faith is Someone within us who is stronger than our disappointments, stronger than every closed door. The Blessed Mother carried this presence inside her, within her womb. In her, faith was incarnate. It was the life of that Child whom she pro- tected and by whom she felt protected. Faith is something to take care of, which at the same time takes care of us!

Yes, love generates love, and today there is an immense need of people able to give birth to hope through love. There is a need for new families.

Peter remained as the Pope. He who has not yet profoundly encountered the Holy Father at least once cannot understand the luminous mystery of the living presence that exists in him. So go, look the Holy Father in the eyes; you will see that Peter is alive in him because, becoming closer to him, you will feel the tenderness of God and the beauty of a remaining presence that gives you safety. You will feel a dimension that does not exist on this Earth and that does not represent only a historical moment; there is something else that goes beyond what you see and someone else that lives in that person that you are encountering-it’s Peter that continues to guide us to the encounter with the Teacher...

01/01/1900 He who loses his life will find it again
 
The old year is just over and we are ready to live a real novelty , so we must no longer be the same as yesterday! Woe to us if we don’t take the love of God seriously.. we are the world for His sake , and we can live a full and true life , without compromise , but we must also be able to suffer a bit ' , if not good does not win and life fades. Jesus told us : "He who loses his life will find it again"! !Let’s try to donate , even just a smile , but with a clean heart , without seeking reward , so we will begin to enjoy a new quality of life.

01/01/1900 Good day my life!
We must wake up in the morning saying to ourselves : "Good morning, my life ." If we are not the first to love our lives why should the others do it? We need to contemplate our life every day in its novelty because life is dynamism , life is God who creates and re-creates every day new things inside and outside of us! We are never surprised enough , nor ever think of the fact that every day there is Someone who raises the light ... we do not realize it , and so we become trivial , giving for granted that we wake up, have good health, think, love , have the strength to smile ... But God continues to trust us because He is interested in us , loves us and builds a future that is new every moment !

Lent is a journey , a journey to get to celebrate the day of our Easter faith , a path of death and resurrection ! We can say that we have  already covered this step, this exodus to freedom : before  the Community we were in death, but now no more, because the ' "Dawn of the Resurrection " is shimmering on the darkness and is winning ! The Lenten journey that we will have  together will be , if we want, if we believe , an experience in healing from any real , deep and inner malaise. In this " crossing of the desert " we want to give space to the silence of the head, and the feelings of the heart. Let’s get rid of  banalities , interests , ambitions and motivations that are "sick " for our actions and our life.

It is important to think of Our Lady as a woman who is genuine and transparent, and has nothing to hide. In the Comunity we have proposed the Truth: to say and be told the Truth. I think Our Lady gives us this example: she is the genuine woman, free and transparent who can speak and speak to everybody. She is a girl, she was a girl like us: she did not know that she was chosen by God our Father and who knows how she lived this; we imagin Our Lady always praying, but it’s nice sometimes to imagin her preparing the meals for Joesph, feeding baby Jesus and holding Him in Her arms.

I realize more and more that today the youth want to meet with the truth, they want to know the true life, without fear; there are courageous people that risk only because that have a need to see with their eyes, with all their being, that the Gospel is not an illusion, not a fantasy, and not only a doctrine… but that it is life, a full life. I believe that the youth are giving us a strong lesson of courage and the determination to want good. To carry away and involve those that choose to believe in them. And we believe they take these proposals seriously and demanding.

We have received a great gift from God : He has called us to experience the joy of communicating love. Nothing comes from us, it's a great gift, it is a free reward that comes from Him , it is not hardness but rest, it is not sorrow but joy, not fatigue but strength. Our love must be an embodied Love so as it was for Jesus ; who knows how many people looked at Jesus with bright, clean eyes, to help, to uplift, to comfort! If we love Jesus, sooner or later that fire comes from all sides and the people watching us are converted.

01/01/1900 GENERAL AUDIENCE Wednesday, 6 November 2013
01/01/1900 The mission means coming out of ourselves.
The mission is a journey, it means coming out of ourselves. That's why we are all called to be missionaries, and we should not pretend to go to distant countries if we want to stay on ourselves, locked in our thoughts, memories, desires: we would be locked and we would only do things with the body, with the hands and feet... with what we have, but not with who we are! The mission instead is your being that is given , which no longer thinks of himself, who is interested, body and soul, in the need of love, hope and peace of the others.
01/01/1900 Holiness is your life
Holiness is your life , lived in truth : simple, clean, joyful . Holiness is experiencing a force that you've never had before in making a concrete step in life , how to have the courage to be reconciled , to ask for forgiveness. Holiness is the balance between live think, say and do : achieve this profound unity of you, wanting to be free from everything, even from yourself and from your ups and downs in mood.

No words can describe what we experienced on top of the hill of Saluzzo, celebrating the 29th anniversary of the opening of Comunita Cenacolo.

The Community wishes to be a sign of hope in the world, among the families, in man’s heart.
The seed of hope is in each of us : we wish a better future, healing, good health, peace: particularly now, at the beginning of a new year, we feel in our hearts the wish of a better future. The new year calls for a fresh start and  we are really experiencing that true hope doesn’t only mean something: it is Someone.The Father came towards us revealing His face through the Son and our hope strikes its roots in Him

They have found the true meaning of their existence!  I would like to tell each one of you: “Take your life into your own hands and realize that it is a precious, important, and unique gift.  Rediscover the joy of living, the beauty of giving life!”

01/01/1900 Eucharist, God's great gift to humanity!
We would all love to receive mail, we all would like to receive a letter. Well, God knows our longing to be loved, to be remembered, our desire to enter the mystery of life, the life that sometimes gives us so many problems. God knows, then He has pledged to send a "letter" every day! Let's remember, the Word of God is the "letter" of His love and He sends it every day.
Woe to us if we got used to it,we would lose the flavor of life and everything else, including the beauty of human relationships: the others will never be able to fill our thirst for love!

Holiness is a path, is a dynamic existence which brings concrete fruits. Holiness becomes love, commitment, you lose your life to let other people know God’s love. Holiness is not an abstract concept, bit is a real meeting with Jesus, which becomes serving hands, running feet, sighted eyes, giving body and blood: it is worth living that way, because it is not only you that lives but it’s Christ’s life that resides in you and gives itself to others.
Cheer up! Let’s try hard, do not waste our time: if you really want to know who you are and know all gifts you have sit in front of the Eucharist and you’ll discover everything.

Finally I have a moment where I can recollect my thoughts and write a little about what happened over the weekend. I do not even know where to begin, because the emotions are so high. The joy is so great, and what I saw over the weekend was so beautiful. The presence of Mother Elvira, Father Stefano, and our sisters really made the weekend memorable.

01/01/1900
What everyone of us is looking for is true friendship: truth, honesty and love.
The Lord himself has given us the nostalgia of communion and friendship among us; He has put in us the nostalgia of good, of understanding, how knowing how to love, forgive and to start again with joy.

So we learn from our youth that our true wellbeing, our happiness isn’t that which makes us exhalt, but it’s to be brothers and sisters, friends, without ambitions to get to who knows where, but alone!

01/01/1900
Dearest friends,
I was very touched by the Holy Father’s message for Lent. It’s a great help for us in the Community that this year we would like to learn to live the immense gift that is true friendship, with God and also among us. So we come to you all with a lot of joy, to wish you all a good Lenten walk made of many of our small commitments, but also of many surprises that the Lord never stops giving us: it’s up to us to keep an open and and welcoming heart!

01/01/1900 Happy Easter!
Both yesterday and today the world awaits the Paschal annunciation of hope and the joy of knowing that death is defeated forever, that a Man has freely given Himself and paid the ransom for us all. God waits for our “yes” today, so that the echo of this announcement can reach everyone, rich and poor, professors and illiterate, the good and the bad, men, women, children...

I finally take a moment to write about our Lent Retreat at Camp St. John. What a weekend of prayer, emotions, joy, and tears. I think we had almost 300 people for the retreat and more for Sunday. It was so nice to see the parents spend so much time in prayer, kneeling down before the Blessed Sacrament...

01/01/1900 Love for life reborn
In our human relationships, we have this longing for greatness in our hearts. What every one of us is looking for is true friendship, great friendship. "It's not good that a man should be alone" (GEN 2,18). The Lord himself, created us with the nostalgia of communion and of friendship among us.

The door to our hearts has only one handle, one that can be opened only from the inside. When He knocks we are the only ones who can open it for Him.  He wants to come inside to make us happy, to fill us with joy.  And when He enters, it is like the coming of spring after a long winter: our hearts are opened with a beautiful smile. 
01/01/1900 Mother Elvira birthday celebration
Finally I have a moment to share what’s happening in Cenacolo life. There is just so much that is difficult to explain everything. I was to Italy for Mother Elvira`s birthday. This is a big Community celebration every year. There is a whole day for the guys, girls, and friends. There is a day just for the girls, and there is a day just for the guys...

01/01/1900 To lay down one’s life for one’s friends
The term “friends” refers to something more than just a brother or sister. In fact, Jesus, when he wanted to tell his apostles that he truly loves them, that he trusts in them, that he feels that they are “his”, says to them, “I called you friends because everything that I heard from my Father I have made it known to you”...

We are immersed in the Holy Spirit which daily hugs the time of our life. The Creator Spirit renovates and makes new everything every day, and today we are that new creation. God desires to enter the roots of our story, the seasons of our past and often wounded life, because the true experience of Him becomes the germ of a new creation, the perpetual spring of the heart.
01/01/1900 July
I believe in God the Father, I believe in Jesus Christ, and I believe in the Holy Spirit... These are words that tell the truth of our lives, our faith: drawing our strength from Someone else, trusting to Him who we have experienced can give us a serenity born out of the certainty of always being wanted by the Creator Father, regenerated continuously and redeemed by the Savior Son, and embraced and accompanied every day by the Holy Spirit of Love.

I have understood that in life love is everything, is always, is ,whatever happens. Even when we have many problems, when we experience the “burden “of our weakness, we must let love live inside of us, outside of us, around us. We are the children of a Father who is the source of love: God is love!

Being true missionaries above all means “imitating” Jesus. The true, great missionary of the Father was Jesus:  He sacrificed himself; he left his divine nature and dressed himself in our poor human nature suffering exactly like us with fatigue, hunger, persecution, humiliation… First we must believe that the source of Love and Life is Jesus of Nazareth. 
He gave himself for us and he did it with liberty, joy, courage, and a lot of love.

Saintity belongs to the heart of a Christian, it helps us, it’s our uniform, our full realization: it’s the way of Love in the simplicity of a life that has discovered its fullness.The Saints lead our way through life and teach us that if life is not given by God it is wasted.They witness that there is more joy in giving than in receiving, that Jesus is the true sense of life.

01/01/1900 Meeting in England
01/01/1900

On Saturday, the 22nd of January 2011, we celebrated together at the sports complex of Fossano Mother Elvira’s Birthday.  When she arrived she greeted us saying: „ I am happy for the gift of life and feel the desire to have it grow and expand beyond all limits“ and she invited us to greet one another saying: "I am glad that you exist!“

01/01/1900 March
Lent is the special time that draws us towards the heart of our Christian faith, the moment of our salvation: the Easter Triduum of Jesus’ Death and Resurrection. Lent is also the act of immersing ourselves in the universal suffering that Jesus suffered, in the pain that He embraced as He loved. In this way, has become the instrument of salvation for all of humanity.
01/01/1900 Yes, He has really risen!
A new walk starts every year: it’s a time of grace, a special time made of conversion and healing. It’s the Lent that makes us ready for Easter, the heart of Jesus’ story, the most important moment in His life.
This “strong “ time, forty days long ,reminds us of the people of Israel’s walk to get to the promised land. Jesus enters  that ancient Easter  and renews it ,that is to say He frees man from the chains of sin.

01/01/1900
My dear friends,
We wish to inform you that on Thursday March 24th at 3,30 p.m. Sister Piera “returned home” to the arms of the Father who rushed  to welcome her.
She passed  peacefully, here in the Mother House in Saluzzo, surrounded by the boys who have lived close to her as “ Guardian Angels” during the last months.

01/01/1900 April
We are walking towards Easter, towards the heart of our faith: Jesus died and rose again for us.  Let us get on our knees before the Cross and bow down before him asking for the gift of a compassionate heart, able to be moved before the Love of a God who has given everything for us. Let us be moved before Jesus as He is moved by us: when we suffer,when we have trouble, pain, anxiety, fear, He looks forward to taking it all upon Himself.

01/01/1900 Newsletter
"Dear Family and Friends,
we celebrated the 20th anniversary of Comunita Cenacolo America! We thank our Lord for these years in which many young men and women found new hope and peace in their lives, after so many
years of hopelessness and desperation. By encountering the forgiveness and mercy of Jesus, they have been able to forgive themselves, forgive those who wounded them, and ask forgiveness of those whom they harmed. They have discovered  that their life is truly a gift, which has purpose and meaning. Their healing brings healing to their families, who walk their own journey during the years their sons and daughters are in Community.."
01/01/1900 Risen Jesus is waiting for us!
Let’s celebrate because Jesus’ Resurrection is the great feast of life. Without His victory on death we would have never met, we would not be here. Easter Vigil is the greatest, most  joyful, brightest night of our life and of all time, the highest moment in history :Jesus leaves the grave, His life wins over death and sin! The youth in our Community really wish to sing, dance ,be happy and  celebrate life even  in the labour of their walk towards light: maybe they do not know why yet, but they have guessed something , they have seen something already!

01/01/1900
This year, the month of May should blossom, giving novelty to each day, transforming our lives (just like things change in nature) into something beautiful, something joyous.  Each day should spring forth a new flower that is more beautiful, more stupendous, more scented than the day before.  Let us try to pray the rosary with our heart
