3rd Day in Györ

3rd Day in Györ

We continue in Györ, discovering Father’s project for all nations: one Family – daughters, sons and siblings in Jesus.

We started the day together in prayer. 

The reflections in different language groups followed. The invitation of God of Mercy that manifested himself in Jesus is to come out of our indiference and to become neighbors to every person that we meet. Jesus comes close to all of us, compassionatelly, without judging anybody, he lifts up those who fall, those who are at the margins, offering his forgiveness always and without any condition.

 Jesus is the entrance to God’s compassionate heart that is why we started the celebration of Eucharist entering  through the door of Mercy, asking for the strenght to live the Kingdom.

Various worshops filled our aftenoon. We also had an opportunity to experience the Mercy through the sacrament of reconciliation. We were invited to identify all that doesn’t fully allow us to be who we are meant to be, all that enslaves us and doens’t let us to fully unfold the capacity to love that God has given us.

The highlight of the day has been the Vigil of Mercy; music, art, lights helped us to become aware of the presence of the Risen Christ in our midst. He is the one who lifts up the barriers of our fears, inviting us to offer him our masks and offering us his peace in return.  During the adoration we have prayed for peace in our world as we  have received the news of the attack in Munich... We have prayed to the Lord of Peace who has shared his Spirit with us to give us His peace so we can share it and build it in our environments.
