Dear friends,
First of all, I would like to apologize for the long period of silence due to the quarantine to which we all have been forced, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
As every year, on the occasion of the Easter holidays, we would have sent you the report cards of our children from the Cité des Jeunes Nazareth but, unfortunately, our activities had to be interrupted and we could only reach you through social networks.
We had to postpone our annual Charity Dinner, to which a small delegation of our Rwandan boys had been invited, on the occasion of the celebrations for the centenary of the birth of St. John Paul II who, as you know, strongly wanted the construction of the Cité.
We also had to postpone our annual mission to Rwanda, scheduled for October.
However, the Nolite Timere onlus, despite the total closure period due to the quarantine, has always been active. Those who follow us on social networks know that we have organized a fundraiser to help the families of Giugliano who suddenly found themselves in serious difficulties, without work and therefore without the necessary means of support. In this regard, we are pleased to inform you that approximately € 4240.00 has been raised so far.
The terrible experience from which, with the help of God, we are exiting, urges us to help those in need, to comfort those in despair. We are all children of the same Father and all members of the same family. It is therefore imperative to help each other.
... AND VIDE AND CREDITS (Jn, 20, 8)
What did he believe in?
That Jesus was no longer in the power of death, that He was alive forever (...)
The grave was empty, but the heart was full of a presence! And hope rekindled immediately!
