Easter 2011: Bringing the Risen Jesus to the streets of the world

Apr 19, 2011

ThIs greeting from Maria Voce invites us to make a renewed commitment in our life in order to give witness.

“Dearest all ,

The Good News that we are still called to live today is that Jesus is risen and is alive in our midst through our mutual love.

The evangelical message of 2,000 years ago is still relevant today and draws us all into a new commitment in life and giving witness.

The wish that I would like to reach each one of our large family everywhere is to always walk with Him, the Risen One, through the streets of the world.”

Maria Voce

The Holy Spirit “recreates” them as a new humanity and this vocation, today, concerns not only each of us, but is fully realized when we are “community” and support for the other.This is how the Gospel becomes life and the mission a new Pentecost.
