reasons that pushed me to face the theme of poverty.&amp;nbsp; On one hand the crisis, not only economic but
also cultural and spiritual that the world is facing, on the other hand true
and proper event of the Spirit&amp;nbsp; that are
the gestures and words of Pope Francis who begun not only with the choice of
his own name , living the motto of&amp;nbsp; “ A
poor Church for poor people”. I suggest some ideas emphasizing on the poverty
in its human, social, economic and theological dimension.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;As consecrated
people who have put at the first place of their adherence to the call, the fact
of living all in order to follow Christ, it is fundamental to do a serious
discernment in order to understand whether the daily lifestyle we live in
conforms to our initial choice.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Let us begin
asking ourselves a question: is poverty what we want to fight or value to be
assumed, a threat to our lifestyle or a horizon to be assumed for a lighter
relationship with the world?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

poverty bothers us, but this is, may be, its highest value.&amp;nbsp; It bothers if it threatens us and challenges
the material certainties on which we base, after all, our daily existence and
our ability to make projects; but it bothers even if we assume it to be a
value, as lifestyle, for it requires us to deny ourselves external assurances
to embrace an attitude of confidence with foundation in something (or better in
someone) which goes beyond ourselves.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

our society, when we talk of poverty, we tend to think immediately of something
negative: the lack of things, in particular economic goods. To say the truth,
human reality of poverty is so wide and articulated.&amp;nbsp; Therefore, at the human point of view, poverty
has positive aspects. And on one hand, even though it refers to negative
aspects, it comprises more than a socio-economic fact.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Economic
Poverty, in fact, or the lack of material goods, is an extreme fact even if it
is important for man and his physical subsistence. This one is a basic and primordial
poverty.&amp;nbsp; There is poverty, therefore,
even when there are goods but that are unequally distributed; for example, in a
rich society we can find many poor. (Cf. &lt;i&gt;Ecclesia
in Asia&lt;/i&gt;, 40b).&amp;nbsp; We can now talk of
“relative” economic poverty, not when goods are not sufficient to live a worthy
human life, but when economic and cultural possibilities would allow to all
citizens a superior level, if corruption or the bad administration do not
prevent it.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Therefore,
sometimes people talk of poverty or shortage&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;simply when they do not manage to gather goods more or less
fictive, or consignment, stimulated by the propaganda of consummation. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;In
order to understand how this mentality (that we found also in a good number of
religious) is contrary to Christian spirit, it is enough to think that,
according to it, the more we have the more we are: it&amp;nbsp; is in having that resides the ideal, the
summit of life and of felicity.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Whereas
for a Christian: “there is greater joy in giving than receiving” (Acts 20:35)
and “God loves the one who gives with joy” (2Cor 9:7); not only the one who
gives, but the one who is pleased not in gaining but in giving. In total
contraposition with the promise of consumption: (The more you will have the
more you will be happy), Jesus and Paul proclaim that felicity is not in having
but in giving.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;But
there are other profound types of poverty. For example, the lack of power to
decide ( on his own life, family, society…),&amp;nbsp;
unemployment ( lack of job) for it denies not only the acquisition of
goods but also it goes against the dignity and rights of the human person.
There is poverty of a physically impeded or psychologically sick person, the
crippled, the old person: he lacks the good of health; the poverty of the
uninstructed or the unlearned: he lacks the good of culture; poverty of the one
who is homeless or has no family or who has to emigrate because of economic or
political reasons, particularly clandestine immigrant, the persecuted, the
nomad, clochard. Again , poverty of the one who feels abandoned , forgotten ,
despised&amp;nbsp; ,hated, mistrusted&amp;nbsp; , discriminated against; of the one who feels
exploited , reduced to the level of an object , manipulated, marginalized,
crashed&amp;nbsp; by structures or by the
powerful; of someone who feels poor of quality and personal human resources; of
the one who feels victim of his limitations, of his good character , of his
psychological fragility, of his inconsistencies and sins. Also the poverty
of&amp;nbsp; “poor rich”, to mean those who are
rich of things but poor of values; those whose life is engulfed in a work that
they are unable to detach themselves from; a life full of things but empty of
spirit, love, even health (cf. NMI 50). These are new poverties that the
document &lt;i&gt;vita consecrata&lt;/i&gt; talks about
in no.63b.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Negative poverty is
therefore a very complex and wide reality, that of which, in some way, we are
all victims. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;!--[if !supportLists]--&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;b.&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; font-size: 7pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;

of value, the space in which appear human virtues.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Like
before, referring first to the relation of man and things and with other
persons, poverty means to help man to maintain his role and his importance in
the order of creation, without becoming slave (dependent) of any person, of a
mode not conformed to his dignity. Thus it happens when man maintains himself
free&amp;nbsp; from things , does not cling to
them, free from envy of&amp;nbsp; possessing
things or dominating others; when he uses things or when he fulfills his
responsibilities , but frees himself and other people. When he does not bother of
useless things, fictive things, needs created artificially (fruit of the
society of consummation wild and mad), be it for saving its liberty in front of
things, or in front of the one who would like to exploit it.&amp;nbsp; When he understands that it is important to
be than to have.&amp;nbsp; &lt;i&gt;Poverty as liberty and liberation&lt;/i&gt;, free for serving others, free
for opening oneself and welcoming God.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The
poor, in the positive , it is the one who conscious of his limitations , opens
himself to others to receive from them with simplicity and humility, being able
to share with them, to offer himself, the little or enough that he has,
convinced that relationship between persons is the best , and the dignity of
the other person is valid than things. He feels himself and recognizes himself
in need of others at the same time able to give something, being enriched, to
receive with gratitude and give generously.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;
Thus, poor, not in the sense of the one who does not have, but in the
sense of the one who “in his own humanity becomes dispensator of good” RD 5c&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Poverty
as solidarity, sharing, communion; not as privation but as self oblation; Thus,
a “poor heart” becomes also inevitably a “fraternal heart”. The person with
such a heart communicates not only material goods, little or many be they, but
especially and first of all himself, his person ( the greatest good that
everyone has but not the&amp;nbsp; portfolio), his
own time , his own qualities and capacities, his own humanity, his own love.
And so, filled and free of power of giving what&amp;nbsp;
he has humanly or spiritually, seeing in that fact of giving himself not
a lost or impoverishment&amp;nbsp; but an
unceasing source&amp;nbsp; of&amp;nbsp; human enrichment.&amp;nbsp; He becomes aware that surely it is egoism ,
the fact of being self-centered, which is the most human impoverishment,&amp;nbsp; because it jails the person in his shell
of&amp;nbsp; limits , prevents him to receive and
grow; whereas in sharing and in loving people and things(goods) poverty gets
its inexhaustible source of plenitude and human wellbeing. This is poverty
understood as love, fraternity, solidarity.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpLast&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Thus poverty means self-acceptance, acceptance
of others and the realities the way they are, with the strengths and limits of
everyone and of everything. Acceptance which is not passive resignation but a
“Yes” to life, to people (beginning with his own life), to the entire creation:
so, poverty as simplicity of life, welcoming, encouragement, promotion, life.
Thus understood, poverty signifies liberation from concupiscence or cupidity of
possession, from egoism and power, from exploitation and objectification of others
or of the created order; it means self control before material things. The
simplicity and finally, a certain austerity of life are a help so that man
remains plainly himself, human, worth, lord of creation, not the one who
destroys; free, not slave and destroyer; the one who loves and not an
exploiter.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;It is poverty
which leads to the gratuity, to self-giving and sharing in overcoming the
continual temptation of profit, of egoistic calculations, of exploitation and
manipulation of others, of oneself or things in finding his own happiness in
communication of oneself, in helping and loving. It is a virtue that we find
always among people who are economically weak; they willingly share among
themselves and with visitors what they have; moreover, they feel happy and
honored for the sharing. The words of Jesus: “there is no greater love than to
lay down one’s life for others” (Acts 20: 35) seem to correspond to the human
nature also before being a revelation of something which is supernatural. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

positive when it is a fruit and manifestation of man’s love to the other person
(including himself) and the entire creation. This is the human basis on which
our decision of living everything through the vow of poverty stands, it is the
premise on which the supernatural gifts grafts itself (grace presupposes
nature, as Saint Thomas Aquinas said).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

us look at the true meaning and the root of our poverty. In this regard, we are
not impoverishing poverty by reducing it to the question of money! Of course
money has something to do with poverty for the economic reality is an aspect of
our life. But, the poverty revealed by Christ and in Christ is something which
is much profound. If, speaking of the human reality of poverty we have
discovered that it has a horizon more vast and rich, what more when we enter in
its evangelical meaning?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;One of the great
merits of the Exhortation “&lt;i&gt;Vita
Consecrata&lt;/i&gt;” was certainly that of bringing us from the economical point of
view and profoundly materialist religious poverty to its true vision which is
the Christological-Trinitarian root. If it is in Christ, i.e., in the Incarnate
Word that we should find the meaning of the mystery of our life, what the
Father called us for, where we come from, where we are and where we are going…,
it is evident that it is also the meaning of the consecrated life and all the
elements which constitute it; in this case, poverty.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

brief, the Exhortation tells us of the Christological, Trinitarian, ecclesial
and apostolic meaning of Christian poverty and religious poverty. The
evangelical poverty says the Exhortation, is a clear and concrete mode of
living and proclaiming that: “God is the sole true richness of man”. When
poverty is lived according to the example of Christ (Christological aspect) who
“though He was rich, became poor” (2Cor 8: 9; Ph 2: 5-11), it becomes an
expression of the total gift of self which the three Divine persons
(Trinitarian aspect) make to one another. It is a gift that overflows into
creation and is fully revealed in the Incarnation of the Word and His
redemptive death.” (VC 21c; Cf. 22b).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

this sense, the religious, “by imitating the poverty of Christ (Christological
aspect), confesses him (prophetical-apostolic aspect) as the Son who receives
everything from the Father, and gives everything back to the Father in love
(cf. Jn17:7.10) (Trinitarian aspect)” (Vc 16c). If we are not able discover and
do not root ourselves on this basis, we are still far from the Gospel; we have
not yet understood anything of our life.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

is from this imitation that flows the external significance, apostolic, of
witness and prophetic of our poverty. In fact, in front of a society in which
there is a “materialism which craves for possessions, heedless of the needs and
sufferings of the weakest, and lacking any concern for the balance of natural
resources” (VC 89a), our poverty appears as a charism of simplicity,
detachment, solidarity and fraternity with everybody, beginning with those who
are most in need, “the predilection for the poor and the promotion of justice”
(VC82, 90). A charism which pushes us to have a preferential love -not
exclusive- for the poor (VC82, 90). The poor n fact, becomes the first-not the
only one-, after the one who is the true First and Unique: God. And all this,
the Exhortation adds, the religious lives with: “&lt;i&gt;superabundance of gratuity and of love&lt;/i&gt;, and this more so in a world
in which he risks to suffocate himself in the whirlpool of the ephemeral”
(Vc105a). A charism which requires to be lived as Jesus Himself lived it
(Christological aspect): in humility, simplicity, solidarity and hospitality in
overcoming all kind of exploitation, of becoming middle class and of
consumption.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

We
should see the meaning of our poverty in the context of Christian poverty in
general; and this is no other than a representation, a prolongation and the
complement of Christ’s poverty in history (cf. Col1:24).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

we think of Christ’s poverty, we seem to stay simply at something external,
superficial. But, in Jesus, the external manifestations of something-of
poverty, in this sense, have the true value but relative, as the expression of
the internal reality as in each one of us.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;When we read that “He had nowhere to put
his head” (Mt 8:20; cf. Lc9,25), we speak of something that is external; the
meaning and the root of his poverty however should be looked for in something
more intimate and profound. To understand better, let us recall the words of
the&amp;nbsp; apostle Paul: “For you know the
gracious acts of our Lord Jesus Christ, that for your sake he became poor
although he was rich, so that by his poverty you might become rich” (2Cor8,9;
cf. 5,21; VC21). An affirmation written in the Christological hymn in the
letter to the Philippians “Have among yourselves the same attitude that is also
yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard
equality with God something to be grasped at. Rather, he emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave, coming in human likeness; and found human in
appearance, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even death on a
cross.” (Ph 2,5-8). The fundamental poverty of Christ which is at the basis of
all potential external manifestations, is that annihilation, that emptying, that
impoverishment; in one word, the Incarnation.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

fact, this fundamental poverty consists in voluntary renouncement, for love to
the Father and to the people who became his brothers in the flesh, at the
precedent divine situation and to his prerogatives: the fact that he made
himself like us, it means, “poor,” limited, subject to the human creature “in
the flesh likened to that of sin” (Rm8,3), “made lower than the angels”
(He2,9), “in becoming like his brothers in all” (He2,17), having been tested in
every way, like us, yet without sin (He4,15). It means that subjected to
poverty of the psychological suffering, the lack of means, of growing and
learning humanly (Lk2,40.52), to the passion and death; subjected to poverty of
psychical distress of misunderstanding, of not succeeding to make himself
understood&amp;nbsp; and accepted, of calumny, of
insult…poverty which means renunciation of his divine powers in his favour as
it appears in the temptations(Mt 4:3.6.9), in Gethsemane (Mt 26: 53-54), before
Caiphas&amp;nbsp; (Mt26: 63-64) and Pilate (Jn
18:37), on the cross (Mt 27:42-43): a constant provocation of using the divine
powers in his favor to which he renounced.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

sum up, behind the external manifestations of poverty, that of Christ appears
in profundity: He became like us so that he may make us like him (cf 2Cor8,9).
And, the reason of this impoverishment (Incarnation) is his obedience to the
Father (He10,7;Jn4,34;5,30;Ph2,8;Rm5,19;He5,8). Obedience which is not slavery
or oppression, but rather the free expression of his unconditional love to his
Father which carries him to live an attitude of an unconditional love the
people and to his brothers, in making himself in solidarity to them until his
death (Jn3,16; 15,9.12-14;17,21-23;Mc10,45; Ph2,5-8): “I lay down my life
because I want and nobody&amp;nbsp; takes it away
from me” (Jn10,17-18). Following the visible external reality until the more
profound reason, we see that the process is: the external poverty is as a
consequence (effect) of the internal poverty (Incarnation), which is the
consequence of his obedience to the Father, which is the consequence of his
love to the Father.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;That is the
first and the final reason/meaning, foundation of Christ’s poverty and, so, of
that of his disciples. The Trinitarian mystery and the mystery of salvation are
a mystery of poverty, i.e., the total self-giving, for the love of the other.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;In this sense,
Christ becomes the poor &lt;i&gt;par excellence&lt;/i&gt;:
nobody has lived what He lived and, consequently, did not renounce like Him. He
completely gives Himself, with love and freedom (Jn 10, 17-18); He lives in a
total attitude of availability to all that the Father commanded to Him,
detached from everything and from everybody (poverty), beginning from his
natural family (celibacy), in favor of the received mission (obedience) (Lk. 2,
49; Mt. 12, 49-50). On the cross, He lived the climax of that poverty, acting
with the major radicalism of the biblical poor: without richness (physical
poverty), without dignity or recognized rights (social poverty and political
one), oppressed by the political power (Pilate, the occupant) and, what was
infinitely more dramatic for a Hebrew, by the religious power (the Sanhedrin,
the High Priest, the political and religious authority recognized by Him…!);
and even poor of a Father, by feeling Him being far, He who had said: even if
everybody could desert Him, He could not remain alone because the Father is
with Him (Jn 8, 29; 16,32)… And in that situation of poverty, of total
eradication, He reacts with a cry that is, at the same time, of anguish
(because he is a human) and of confidence to the Father in spite of all, the
cry of the one who has remained without any power and security apart from that
of that distant God: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”(Mt 27: 46; Ps
22). In spite of everything: Father, in your hands I put my Spirit (Lk 23, 46;
Ps31, 6). And thus he dies (Cf. VC 23). It seems to be a total failure; and on
the contrary, it is the beginning of everything. Now the word is addressed to
the Father, and the Father quickly will respond: by raising him! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;That total
availability to the Father till on the cross (Ph 2,5-11) had already brought
Him, during his public life, to live ready and detached at the same time, in
order to be free for the mission, moved by the love to the Father and to the
brothers. He does not avoid any contact with no body (Jn 6:37); and, in fact,
with the Gospel we find around Jesus each type of person. In the same time,
therefore, he remains free from everything, from parents, from politics, from
law and groups of power… His external poverty will only be an asceticism of
Greek style, on the other side, He will be accused by some disciples of
Baptizer of not being austere enough (Mt 9, 14; 11, 18-19), though He lived in
insufficiency of things and of human security: His own family (Mt 19, 10-12),
rejected in his native land in&amp;nbsp; which He
was brought up (Mt 12, 46-50), pursued by his compatriots of Nazareth (Lk 4,
16-30), without own possessions (Mt 8,20), guest in the house of a disciple,
Peter (Lk 4, 31-41; Mk 2, 1), guest of the friends of Bethany (Lk10, 38-42),
helped economically by some rich women (Lk8, 1-3), buried in a borrowed tomb
(Jn 19,28; Mk16, 1; Lk23, 56)… His poverty is not, first of all a “&lt;i&gt;renunciation to&lt;/i&gt;” “but a choice in favor
of”, by love, with all the consequences, included the eventuality of the death
on a cross.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

this point, what then, is the meaning of the evangelical poverty for us? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;It should be, in a certain manner, like
the one of Christ. We can summarize its meaning in three affirmations, each one
being the consequence of the other. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Above all, poverty is an inner reality, an attitude and&amp;nbsp; a reality lived interiorly (Cf. Mt 5,3),
fruit and consequence of Faith. In concrete terms, we move from the acceptance
of God in Christ as the center and mover of the proper life, i.e., the primacy
of God on everything and on everybody. And, in consequence, &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;The
total donation to God in Christ as the unique necessary&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. In other
words, a life of poverty which: “… confesses that God is the unique wealth of
the human. Following the example of Christ who “though He was rich, He made
himself poor (2cor 8,9)” becomes the expression of the&amp;nbsp; &lt;i&gt;total
gift of oneself which the three divine persons do to themselves reciprocally &lt;/i&gt;(VC
21c). In that sense, VC “imitating Christ’s poverty, confesses Him as the son
who receives everything from the Father and, in love, remits everything to Him
(Cf. Jn17, 7.10)” (VC 16c), and shares the explicit desire of total
conformation to Him” (VC 18c). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Christological-Trinitarian dimension is the true “Christian” source of poverty.
For us God/Christ is, indeed, the unique necessary good (Cf. Ps 15; Lk10, 42;
VC21c). All the rest continues to be “valid and lovable,” but it comes
emotionally and effectively later, not only goods but also the persons, even
his own life: that is why each Christian must put, even in the plan of his
life, the martyrdom (Cf. LG 42b, VC 86). This is the heart of the poor.” of
each disciple, the poverty asked of all. The religious will live it in his
particular manner, according to the characteristic of his vocation. His
austerity of life, communitarian sharing of possessions, etc., will be exactly
for the proclamation of that primacy of God and availability to the brothers.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Secondly, the evangelical poverty is &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;availability in favor of the kingdom&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.
It is only the consequence of what we have just said. The practical attitude of
service and the external poverty will be the consequence of that internal
attitude of freedom and availability to God and brothers, like Christ. In fact,
imitating Him (Ph 2:7), the religious will deprive, empty and detach himself
from all (persons: family-celibacy, possessions: physical poverty, and
autonomy: obedience) with the aim of remaining opened and available to God and
brothers. In this respect, he avails before everything his own person (the
supreme possession he has); he gives himself without reserve, he makes himself
all to everybody (1Cor 9:19-23). Thus, he becomes a visible representation, in
the history, of the total donation of Christ to the Father and to his brothers.
This means poverty as donation, as life of charity, of love and of communion
(1Jn 1,3), because that is how God is (1Jn 4,8,16), that is how He manifested
Himself (Jn3, 16s) and sanctified us (Rm5,5) not as pleasure of a void, as
disregard of someone or something, or as simple asceticism. Asceticism will be
necessary, but as indispensable aid for overcoming personal egoism and to favor
the communion. As, in fact, said St Paul: &quot;And when I will distribute all
my possession for the poor&#39;s food (physical poverty, as did some Greek
philosophers), when I will give my body so that to be burnt (a bloody death),
if I don&#39;t have charity, all this is nothing (1Cor 13,3).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;In this sense,
the life of a religious is called upon to become a state of universal and
unconditioned availability, of service, solidarity, simplicity, overabundant
gratuity (Cf. VC 104-105), agility and continuous disinstallation, according to
the characteristics of each charism. He becomes, particularly, a brother who
shows solidarity, liberty, simplicity and availability. In addition, he becomes
the “professional” of availability and of sharing, the “expert of communion”
(Cf. RPU 24, RD 5, VC 46a).&amp;nbsp; In fact, he
puts at the disposal of God and of his brothers (obedience) his person, his
life (the unique he has), his love (celibacy), his things (external poverty),
his qualities, his time. For him, any form of individualism, of withdrawing
into oneself, of egoism, of negation of the word or of human relationship, the
lack of collaboration and laziness, etc., are all the faults against the
evangelical poverty, for it could mean that he doesn’t give and share something
that he could give! That is why the evangelical poverty teaches too, clearly,
the economic reality; but it engages much than the wallet: the life, the entire
person! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Even if it has been said, let us repeat it: &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;poverty means sharing of goods&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.
Let us remember that the ideal of the Jerusalem community, paradigm of
Christian community, was not the lack of things, but the sharing of what was
there (Cf. Acts 2,42-47; 4,32; 5,16). For the Christian, in fact, possession is
not evil, but something to be shared, a mean of living and of expressing the
communion.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;For a religious,
this will signify a double type of sharing and a double type of possessions: -
a sharing in the group or community, among the members; that means, the
fraternal life (VFC 44e-h) and towards outside, that means, the apostolic
mission (VFC 59); &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;- and two type of possessions: those
physical and human, and those spiritual. Each one gives what he can, he
welcomes&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.blogger.com/null&quot; name=&quot;_GoBack&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt; the other as he is and is disposed to receive.
The fraternal life and the specific mission are, strictly speaking, the
manifestations of the evangelical poverty. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Then concerning
the external poverty, this last becomes secondary and inevitable at the same
time. Secondary because it is inner poverty which is important; inevitable
because man is a unique reality and so the simplicity of life and austerity
become an indispensable help to make possible and credible the inner poverty.
that is why in spite of it being secondary it is the blue print of the proof of
the inner poverty. when one is poor this cannot be reflected on what one has
though it refers at aspects mostly exterior and material, it is good to take
into account: &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

happened in the history of consecrated life. It is a fact&amp;nbsp; that the evangelical counsel which is at the
origin of many foundations, reforms and falls was not the celibacy or obedience
to a superior, but exterior poverty: the calced became discalced, some
dedicated their lives to the service of the poor and other to the service of
the poorest… and today in which the reformed constitutions after Vatican II is
it not said that those religious people want to dedicate themselves “in a
special way to the poor?” it is also significant that in the exhortation Vita
Consecrata, evangelical counsels&amp;nbsp; are
spoken of generally 38 times, of the group virginal-chaste-celibate 49 times,
of obedient-obedience 41 times, and poor-poverty 76 times! All this want to
tell us that in the current religious life too, the true torment of the
authenticity of life, in as far as the evangelical counsels are concerned,
above discussions on obedience and difficulties in the affective and sexual
aspect, it continues to be (as usual) the understanding and the living of
poverty.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Fr. Cantalamessa
confesses that after writing two booklets on obedience and on virginity, he was
not resolved to publish another one on poverty. and the reason he had given was
“which which courage do we talk of poverty, while what was supposed to be
considered almost heroic poverty today, for millions of human beings is a
normal fact of everyday and of the entire life and a luxurious issue? Fasting
at bread and water would be for us the maximum of austerity, while for millions
of people to have ‘bread and water assured’ would be a kind of dream.”

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;How can we call
“poor” in the society a religious who has a house, food, job, studies, and the
possibility (that many call a right) of enjoying holidays every year or a
sabbatical period (even one year), assured that he/she will get back what
he/she had left when they went?&amp;nbsp; It is
possible that we have even lost the capacity of being ashamed of our
lamentations about small (or great) bourgeoisies. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;In fact, as
Martinez notes, in religious life, the institution offers to its professes an
adjustment without particular traumatism, a solution “light”. It is assured
them, in words and facts, a total assistance in their basic needs, as vital and
biological needs for survival and biophysical sufficient well being. Rarely,
among us, there is one of us who has serious motives for complaints about food,
rest, personal objects, usage of the items of the goods of the community, etc.
In general, we have a dose of life which is placed in between the middle class
and the upper class of “the first world,” with an exception that we work less
than the people around us who need earn something for their subsistence. At
times, our aspirations are, in this domain, those of disposing of more money,
more time, doing things with less efforts, have more material things and
leisure time.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;The community
provides for our subsistence, it offers us an occupation, company and
cohabitation support in difficult time both personal and of the family, it
guarantees us a future. The community is in one word, the “great mother” who
takes care with solicitude and generosity of the needs of her sons and
daughters. In return to all that, it is asked to the religious man or woman to
be faithful to his or her commitment, this is traduced in living together in
community, being what we call a “good religious,” who accomplishes his or her
duties and does all that is required of him or her.&amp;nbsp; It means the attitude both dependant, of
order and discipline, of adequate evolvement of his or her proper duties,
without major pretention, in a continuity which safeguards the principles, the
norms and the projects of the institution. In this sense, he or she will see
his or her esteemed needs&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; of
relationship and security attended to. (Cf. J.L. Martinez, &lt;i&gt;Construir la vida&lt;/i&gt;, 123-124). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Martinez said above is not to be generalized. But it gives some food for
thought because, certainly there is some truth in it. In the assembly of the
UGS (Union of General Superiors) of November 2013 a general superior affirmed:
“in the West, in fact, most of the times we have given significant speeches,
published interesting volumes on poverty, but we remained at the level of
words. on the other hand, not rarely, the religious from the third world came
to the West (in Rome for example) to talk to us of the poverty of their compatriots
and of the urgency of incarnating ourselves in that reality; but sometimes,
their words have left their listeners equally perplexed or sceptic looking at
the tenure of personal life, the expensive clothes, the ornaments they had
and/or the tourism tours they are going to made before reaching us or those
they promised to do once again before they return to their poor people… in
contrary to that attitude, how many times religious from here and there have
talked and went simply to live poor lives among the poor to give them a hand of
support with life than with words?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Some practical elements for a differentiated living, not always easy either on
the charismatic or on the social point of view&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;It is not easy
to offer suggestions on the mode of living poverty today. the reason for that
is the diversity of circumstances, but also of the contradictory situation in
which we find ourselves, either at the level of projects or at the level of the
formation of the individuals. On one side, in the constitutions and rules we
insist on a radicalism either in the personal living or in the encounter with
the poor; on the other side, we are in a society which offers new and important
possibilities, for instance, in the domain of formation, but also this leads us
continuously and almost without us being aware to a consumption and progressive
bourgeoisie which is one of great and urgent problems of the current
consecrated life. It is a mentality contrary to poverty and also austere which
tries to take hold of us daily and in a way at times insolent or subtile,
creating “demands and rights” which do not resist in confrontation to the
criteria set by the constitutions. I would like also to remind that all that,
all these, thanks to the means&amp;nbsp; of social
communication, has no closed frontiers, conditions not only the religious of
active life but also that of contemplative life, the religious of the first
world and not less that of the third world be it when he/she is in the West or
when he/she returns to his/her place.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

today. there is a danger to give to those in formation&amp;nbsp; many possibilities, facilitations and
commodities (money, instruments for work, trips, leisure, etc.) in order to
prepare them in an erroneous way to a life of happy self-denial, which will
become their consecrated life in the future. Certainly we are not preparing a
good future for the institute and for the Church if the candidates grow humanly
and spiritually weak, lazy, capricious or bourgeois. This is a imminent danger
not only for a candidate born and brought up in an economic situation sometimes
of low and which for the time being finds himself/herself more “rich” than
before and good only with the vow of poverty (Cf. PO 9a, RPU 23-24, PI 14,
VC65-68).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Certainly, if is
possible and prudent, but also in conformity with our charism and mission, we
have to offer to the new religious those possibilities of human, cultural and
spiritual formation which, may be, the previous generations did not have, but
which, today are judged to be valid, or even necessary. In other words, it is
no longer fitting to say: “At my time … this was not there, we did not have it,
it was not necessary…” and so, “not you too…”. Life changes history is moving.
In spite of that I believe that we should not fear to stop the obvious juvenile
demands of the means always new and sophisticated or of continuous experiences
when they lead only to loss of hope, to a butterfly like life, moving here and
there to superficiality, to start many things but for achieving little or any,
or to neglect the formation of the will, the spirit of personal or community
prayer, or the collaboration with other confreres in humble work of the
community.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

young person in formation needs, in this period of his life, a strong
experience, &lt;i&gt;inter alia&lt;/i&gt;, of the
community life. And this does not happen if the individuals are left to
themselves,&amp;nbsp; as if their formators would
not or do not have the strength to guide their formation, or because they are
busy with other activities more “interesting” or rewarding.( cf. PI 28). Or, in
the contrary, the formator is so omnipresent that he does not let those in
formation breath, have their own initiatives and responsibilities (when for
example, before entering into formation they had assumed social and apostolic
responsibilities!).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

it is true that the formee must experiment in a some measure ( as and more
again of his companions) that life costs and that he must earn his bread. In
the formation house there is risk of sometimes keeping formees in a kind of
unreal and anti formative, while the companions (obviously) normally become
tired. In this way, are we not forming him for the future,(?) but we childish
him, we keep him in a situation of immaturity and socially&amp;nbsp; false. The convent is not the “big mother”
who must provide and give everything to her “children”! But it is not said that
, to avoid all this, the formee must go [ by force] to do a job which can earn
a salary outside the house; also study, do catechism, manage the telephone or
the door, clean the community areas, and other likewise engagements, are valid
modes of earning one’s bread.&amp;nbsp; Let us not
forget that to nobody exist indignant or humiliating jobs or services if at the
center there is charity and humility… and this , not only in the case of
formees but also in that of the adults, no matter they have or do not have
titles or important charges: it is enough to look at the life of our
founders&amp;nbsp; and mostly the life of Christ (
“ the Lord and Master”&amp;nbsp; John 13, 14) by
washing the feet of the disciples and exhorting them to wash one another’s feet
( John 13, 1-170, to mutually serve each other ( Mark 10, 35-45) as we are reminded
by VC 75. And if some custom or culture do not admit all this, it is to be
transformed , to be evangelized and converted, if it wants to be considered
“Christian.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

feeling&amp;nbsp; that one has for the other; a
particular attention towards the poor, be sober investment, the ability to
mortification and renouncement: are all exterior signs of a true spirit of
poverty.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

rapport which we have with the material things (money, goods…) tells us of what
spirit of poverty we are animated.&amp;nbsp; Also
the management of goods enters in this logic. Many times inside our communities
the one in charge of the management (Superior or bursar who should interact
with the Superior) acts as if he manages his personal goods, without making
account to nobody, taking decisions without consulting the local chapter. And
all this notwithstanding that many times it has been reminded that there should
be&amp;nbsp; at least a trimestrial presentation
of the financial report to the local chapter for a clear accountabiliy ( =
management like the light of the sun and maximum honesty).&amp;nbsp; This signifies to table the patrimonial state
of the community or of the parish, giving account of the entries and outs and
showing all what is saved (postal book, bank account…) or outs (ledges, bills).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

behavior is required also to those who have the responsibility to guide a
parish community; the requied organs within the parish (parish pastoral council
and finance comity) cannot be left in the obscurity on the state of the patrimony
and economy of the parish. Let us remember that we must answer of our
management before God and human beings (civil responsibility)!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

this argument I do not understand the repulsion of many confreres to show to
the Superior or the bursar the report of the personal expenses or the one
related to the work they do! The sense of belonging to the Order is manifested
in the way we manage the goods of the Order, to have at heart the projects of
the same Order and contribute personally (as community) to the realization of
its project, maintenance of the structures we use… all take part in living well
the vow of poverty and to be credible witnesses before the world.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

transparent and shared management helps us to mop the risk, always at the
Conner, of an dishonest management and fall into the claws of some dishonest
people ( history is mistress of life: a remote or recent past talks to us of
grave facts which occurred in our religious family and not only that, some have
led to a significant loss of resources!!!).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;one
should not confuse the spirit of evangelical poverty with misery or lack of joy
and happiness.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/b&gt;In entering in the consecrated life, the religious is
looking for what he thinks will be his happiness, not only spiritual , but also
human!&amp;nbsp; It would be to take a wrong path
the fact of putting into relief or conceive the radicality of the consecrated
life as a species of disguised masochism of spirituality, the earthly
purgatory, or the fact of neglecting any type of satisfaction in awaiting the
eternal happiness…The religious man, as every Christian , must surely accept
with courage the joys and renouncements of his vocation; but , he must too be
able to show and proclaim with his existence that the consecration to God and
to the brothers make happy, not only spiritually but also humanly! There is no
worse anti witness of a religious who is not mature; who is infantile,
unsatisfied, frustrated, irritated, scrapper or sad. You may read well what
says the document “&lt;i&gt;Fraternal life in the
community,&lt;/i&gt; no. 28).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

fact, one does not follow the Risen Lord by the route of interminable Good
Fridays, but rather in the human and Easter joy of belonging totally to Him.
The religious does not make the vows of perpetual affliction, as one does not
consecrate himself to God for avoiding the embarrassments of the family. His
life will be simple, austere, laborious and responsible, serene, realistic and
joyful, human and christianly mature, and thus be the most possible available
to God and brothers.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

is no then the matter of living worldly life (fleshy), neither of racketing nor
confusion, or of creating in the community a place of continuous feast; but,
that deep joy, adult and mature, which comes from faith, faith which illumine
the life of the religious person and helps him to embrace with firmness, love
and realism, may be the enjoyment of living, be the risks and difficulties of
every human being and of his (hers) at the concert. “I know whom I have
believed” as said Saint Paul (2 Tim 1, 12): this is the interesting source of
seriousness and depth of his life and, at the same time, of his joy and
serenity.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;Il y a deux motifs qui m’ont poussé à
affronter le thème de la pauvreté. D’une part la crise, désormais clairement
pas seulement économique mais aussi culturelle et spirituelle que le monde est
en train de traverser, de l’autre, ce vrai et propre évènement de l’Esprit que
sont les gestes et les paroles du Pape François qui a débuté pas seulement avec
le choix de son propre nom, en laissant le slogan d’« une Eglise pauvre pour
les pauvres&amp;nbsp;». Je propose quelques idées en faisant le point sur la
pauvreté dans sa dimension humaine socio-économique et dans sa dimension
théologique.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Comme
consacrés qui ont mis à la base de leur adhésion à l’appel le fait de laisser
tout pour suivre le Christ, c’est fondamental faire un sérieux discernement
pour comprendre si le style de vie que nous assumons quotidiennement est
conforme à notre choix initial.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

en nous posant une question&amp;nbsp;: la pauvreté est ce qu’on veut combattre ou
une valeur à assumer, une menace pour notre style de vie ou un horizon à
assumer pour un rapport plus «&amp;nbsp;léger&amp;nbsp;» avec le monde&amp;nbsp;?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

pauvreté, en tout cas, nous dérange, mais ceci est, peut-être, sa valeur plus
grande. Elle dérange si elle nous menace et met en discussion les certitudes
matérielles sur lesquelles nous fondons, après tout, notre existence
quotidienne et notre habilité à faire des projets ; mais elle dérange aussi
même si nous la posons comme valeur, comme style de vie, car elle nous demande
de nous priver d’assurances extérieures pour nous poser en une attitude de
confiance qui a des bases en quelque chose (ou mieux en quelqu’un) qui va
au-delà de nous-mêmes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; a.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt; Dans notre société, quand on parle
de pauvreté, on tend à penser tout de suite a quelque chose de négatif&amp;nbsp;:
le manque de biens, en particulier ceux économiques. A dire vrai, la réalité
humaine de pauvreté est assez plus ample et articulée. En effet, la pauvreté a
aussi des aspects positifs au point de vue humain. Et, d’autre part, bien
qu’elle se réfère aux aspects négatifs, elle comprend de plus que le simple
fait socio-économique.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; La
pauvreté économique, en fait, ou manque de biens matériels, est un aspect
externe même si c’est important pour l’homme et pour sa subsistance physique.
Celle-ci est une pauvreté primaire, de base. Il y a pauvreté, cependant, aussi
quand il y a les biens mais qui sont mal distribués de façon inéquitable&amp;nbsp;;
par exemple, dans une société riche on peut y trouver beaucoup de pauvres (Cf. &lt;i&gt;Ecclesia in Asia, &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;40b). Nous pouvons donc parler de pauvreté économique
«&amp;nbsp;relative&amp;nbsp;», pas quand les biens ne sont pas suffisants pour&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: -.25pt;&quot;&gt; vivre une vie humainement digne, mais quand les
possibilités économiques et culturelles pourraient permettre à tous les
citoyens un niveau supérieur, si la corruption ou la mauvaise administration ne
l’empêchent pas.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; En
outre, parfois les gens parlent de pauvreté ou pénurie simplement quand ils ne
parviennent pas à gagner des biens plus ou moins fictifs, ou les derniers
apparus sur le marché, stimulés par la propagande de consommation. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Pour
comprendre combien cette mentalité (que nous trouvons aussi dans non peu de
religieux) soit contraire à l’esprit chrétien, il suffit de penser que, pour
elle, plus on a plus on est&amp;nbsp;: c’est dans l’avoir qu’il y a l’idéal et le
point d’arrivée de la vie et de la félicité&amp;nbsp;; tandis que pour le
chrétien&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Il y a plus de joie à donner qu’à recevoir&amp;nbsp;» (Actes
20,35), et «&amp;nbsp;Dieu aime qui donne avec joie&amp;nbsp;» (2Cor 9,7). Pas seulement
celui qui donne, mais qui se sent joyeux pas dans le gagner mais dans le
donner&amp;nbsp;! En totale contraposition avec la promesse de consommation
(«&amp;nbsp;Plus tu auras, plus tu seras content&amp;nbsp;»), Jésus et Paul proclament
que le bonheur n’est pas dans l’avoir mais dans le donner.&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; letter-spacing: -0.25pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Mais,
il y a d’autres types de pauvreté humaine non moins profonde. Par exemple, le
manque du pouvoir décisionnel (sur sa propre vie, famille, société …)&amp;nbsp;; le
chômage (manque de travail) car elle ne prive pas seulement l’obtention des
biens mais aussi elle va contre la dignité et les droits de la personne. Il y a
la pauvreté du malade physique ou psychique, l’infirme, le vieux&amp;nbsp;: il lui
manque le bien de la santé&amp;nbsp;; la pauvreté du non instruit ou
analphabète&amp;nbsp;: il lui manque le bien de la culture&amp;nbsp;; de celui qui n’a
pas de maison ou n’a pas de famille ou qui doit émigrer pour des motifs
économiques ou politiques, en particulier l’immigré clandestin, le persécuté,
le nomade, le clochard. Encore, la pauvreté de celui qui se sent abandonné,
oublié, méprisé, haï, regardé avec méfiance, indifférence ou mépris&amp;nbsp;; de
celui qui se sent exploité, instrumentalisé, manipulé, marginé, plagié, écrasé
par les structures ou par des puissants de garde&amp;nbsp;; de celui qui se sent
pauvre de qualités et de ressources humaines personnelles&amp;nbsp;; de celui qui
se sent victime de ses limites, de son mauvais caractère, de sa fragilité
psychologique, de ses incohérences et péchés. La pauvreté aussi
des&amp;nbsp;«&amp;nbsp;pauvre opulents&amp;nbsp;», c’est-à-dire de ceux qui sont riches de
choses mais pauvre de valeurs&amp;nbsp;; dont la vie se noie dans un travail
écrasant dont ils sont incapables de se détacher&amp;nbsp;; une vie pleine de
choses, mais vide d’esprit, d’amour, voire même de la santé (cf. NMI 50). Ce
sont-là les nouvelles pauvretés dont parle le document Vita Consecrata au n.
63b. La pauvreté négative est donc une réalité très complexe et étendue dont,
en quelque mesure, nous sommes tous victimes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

aussi source de valeur, l’espace dans lequel apparaissent des vertus humaines. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

avant, en faisant référence tout d’abord au rapport de l’homme avec les choses
et avec les autres personnes, pauvreté veut dire aider l’homme à maintenir son
rôle et son importance dans la création, sans devenir esclave (dépendant) de
nul ou de personne, de mode non conforme à sa dignité. Ainsi se passe quand
l’homme se maintient libre devant les choses, ne s’y attache pas, ne se laisse
pas entrainer par la convoitise de possession de choses ou de domination sur
les personnes&amp;nbsp;; quand il utilise des biens ou il s’acquitte de ses
responsabilités, mais il se tient libre et rend libres les autres. Quand il
sait faire abstraction de choses futiles, des biens fictifs, des besoins créés
artificiellement (fruit de la société de consommation effrénée et insensée),
soit pour sauver sa liberté devant les choses, soit devant celui qui voudrait
l’exploiter. Quand il comprend que c’est plus important &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;être&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; qu’&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;avoir&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.
&lt;i&gt;Pauvreté come liberté et libération&lt;/i&gt;,
libre pour servir les autres, libre pour s’ouvrir et accueillir Dieu.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

pauvre, dans le sens positif, c’est celui qui, conscient de ses propres
limites, s’ouvre aux autres pour recevoir d’eux avec simplicité et humilité,
étant capable de partager avec eux, de donner lui-même, ce peu ou beaucoup
qu’il a, convaincu que le rapport entre les personnes soit le bien plus grand,
et la personne de l’autre soit valide plus que les choses. Il se sent et se
reconnait besogneux des autres et, en même temps, capable de donner quelque
chose, d’être enrichi et d’enrichir, de recevoir avec gratitude et de donner
avec générosité. Pauvre donc, pas dans le sens de celui qui n’a pas, mais de
celui qui «&amp;nbsp;dans sa propre humanité devient un dispensateur de bien&amp;nbsp;»
(RD 5c).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

come solidarité, partage, communion&amp;nbsp;; pas comme privation mais comme
oblativité. Ainsi, un «&amp;nbsp;cœur pauvre&amp;nbsp;» devient aussi inévitablement un
«&amp;nbsp;cœur fraternel&amp;nbsp;». Il communique donc pas seulement les biens
matériels, peu ou beaucoup soient-ils, mais surtout et avant tout soi-même, sa
personne (le bien plus grand que chacun a, pas le portefeuille), son propre
temps, ses propres qualités et capacités, sa propre humanité, son propre
amour.&amp;nbsp; Et ainsi plein et libre de
pouvoir donner ce qu’humainement et spirituellement a, en voyant en ce fait de
se donner pas une perte, un appauvrissement mais bien une source incessante
d’enrichissement humain. Il se rend compte que c’est justement l’égoïsme, le
fait de se fermer en soi-même, le plus tragique appauvrissement humain, car ça
emprisonne la personne dans la coquille de ses limites, lui empêche de recevoir
et de croître&amp;nbsp;; tandis que dans le partage et l’aimer les personnes et les
choses elle trouve la source intarissable de sa plénitude et bonheur humain.
Donc, &lt;i&gt;pauvreté comme amour&lt;/i&gt;,
fraternité, solidarité.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

pauvreté signifie donc acceptation de soi-même, des autres et de la réalité de
comme ils sont, avec les possibilités et limites de chacun et de chaque chose.
Acceptation qui n’est pas résignation passive mais un «&amp;nbsp;oui&amp;nbsp;» à la
vie, aux personnes (en commençant par sa propre vie), à la création toute entière.
&lt;i&gt;Donc, pauvreté comme simplicité de vie,
ouverture, accueil, encouragement, promotion, vie&lt;/i&gt;. Ainsi entendu, la
pauvreté apparait comme une vertu humaine entre les plus fondamentales. Elle
signifie libération de la concupiscence ou cupidité de possession, de l’égoïsme
et du pouvoir, de l’exploitation et de l’instrumentalisation des autres ou du
créé&amp;nbsp;; ça signifie domination de soi et devant les choses. La simplicité
et, finalement, une certaine austérité de vie sont une aide afin que l’homme
reste pleinement soi-même, humain, digne, seigneur de la création, pas celui
qui abîme&amp;nbsp;; libre, pas esclave et destructeur&amp;nbsp;; amant, pas
exploiteur.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

la pauvreté qui porte à la gratuité, à se donner et à partager en dépassant la
tentation continuelle de profit, de calcul égoïste, de l’exploitation et
manipulation des autres, de soi-même ou des choses en trouvant son propre
bonheur dans la communication de soi-même, dans le donner un coup de main, dans
l’aimer. C’est une vertu que nous trouvons si souvent justement entre les gens
économiquement faibles&amp;nbsp;: ils partagent volontiers et spontanément entre
eux et avec les visiteurs ce qu’ils ont&amp;nbsp;; en plus ils se sentent heureux
et honorés de pouvoir partager. Les paroles de Jésus&amp;nbsp;: “Il y a plus de
joie à donner qu’à recevoir” (Act 20,35) nous apparaissent correspondantes à la
nature humaine encore avant d’être une révélation de quelque chose de
surnaturelle.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

conclusion, la pauvreté devient quelque chose de positif quand elle est fruit
et manifestation de l’amour de l’homme à l’autre homme (y compris soi-même) et
la création toute entière. Celle-ci est la base humaine sur laquelle appuyer
notre décision de laisser tout à travers le vœu de pauvreté, c’est la prémisse
sur laquelle ensuite se greffe le don surnaturel (la grâce suppose la nature,
comme disait Saint Thomas d’Aquin).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

signification plus vraie, à la racine de notre pauvreté. Et, à cet égard, nous
n’appauvrissons pas la pauvreté en la réduisant à la question d’argent&amp;nbsp;!
Certes que l’argent a quoi faire avec elle car la réalité économique est un
aspect de notre vie. Mais, la pauvreté révélée par le Christ et en Christ est
quelque chose de beaucoup plus profond. Si, en parlant de la réalité humaine de
la pauvreté, nous avons découvert qu’elle a un horizon beaucoup plus vaste et
riche, à plus forte raison quand nous avançons outre dans sa signification
évangélique.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

des plus grands mérites de l’Exhortation «&amp;nbsp;Vita Consecrata&amp;nbsp;» a été
justement celui de nous ramener d’une vision économique et au fond matérialiste
de la pauvreté religieuse à celle vraiment sienne qui est la racine
christologique-trinitaire. Si c’est en Christ, c’est-à-dire, dans le Verbe
Incarné d’où nous devons trouver la signification du mystère de notre vie, ce à
quoi le Père nous a appelés, d’où nous venons, d’où nous sommes et où nous
allons …, c’est évident que l’est aussi la signification de la vie consacré et
tous les éléments qui la constituent&amp;nbsp;; dans ce cas, la pauvreté. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

une synthèse plus que jamais réussi, l’Exhortation nous parle de la
signification christologique-trinitaire, ecclésiale et apostolique de la
pauvreté chrétienne du religieux. La pauvreté évangélique, dit l’Exhortation,
est un mode claire et concret de vivre et proclamer que&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Dieu est
l’unique vraie richesse de l’homme. Vécue sur l’exemple du Christ (&lt;i&gt;aspect christologique&lt;/i&gt;)
qui&amp;nbsp;«&amp;nbsp;riche qu’il était, s’est fait pauvre&amp;nbsp;» (2Cor 8,9; Ph
2,5-11), devient expression du don totale de soi que les trois Personnes divine
(aspect trinitaire) réciproquement se font. C’est un don qui regorge dans la
création et se manifeste pleinement dans l’Incarnation du Verbe et dans sa mort
rédemptrice&amp;nbsp;» (VC 21c&amp;nbsp;; cf. 22b).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 9.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

ce sens, le religieux&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;en imitant la &lt;i&gt;pauvreté&lt;/i&gt; du Christ (&lt;i&gt;aspect
christologique&lt;/i&gt;), il le confesse (&lt;i&gt;aspect
apostolique prophétique&lt;/i&gt;) Fils qui reçoit tout du Père et dans l’amour lui
remet tout (cf. Jn 17,7.10) (aspect trinitaire)&amp;nbsp;» (VC 16c). Si nous
n’arrivons pas à découvrir et nous enraciner sur cette base, nous sommes encore
loin de l’Evangile&amp;nbsp;; nous n’avons rien compris de notre vie.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

de cette imitation que jaillit la signification aussi externe, apostolique, de
témoignage et prophétique de notre pauvreté. En fait, devant une société dans
laquelle il y a «&amp;nbsp;un matérialisme avide de possession, inattentif envers
les exigences et les souffrances des plus faibles et privés de toute
considération pour le même équilibre des ressources naturelles&amp;nbsp;» (VC 89a),
notre pauvreté apparait comme un charisme de simplicité, détachement,
solidarité et fraternité avec tous, en commençant par des plus besogneux,
«&amp;nbsp;la prédilection pour les pauvres et la promotion de la justice&amp;nbsp;»
(VC 82,90). Un charisme qui nous pousse jusqu’à avoir un amour préférentiel –
pas exclusif – pour les pauvres (VC 82,90). Le pauvre, en fait, devient le
premier – pas l’unique -, après Celui qui est le vrai Premier et Unique&amp;nbsp;:
Dieu. Et tout cela, dit encore l’Exhortation, le religieux le vit avec&amp;nbsp;:
«&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;surabondance de gratuité et
d’amour&lt;/i&gt;, et cela tant plus dans un monde où il risque de se suffoquer dans
le tourbillon de l’éphémère&amp;nbsp;» VC 105a). Un charisme qui exige d’être vécu
comme Jésus l’a vécu) aspect christologique)&amp;nbsp;: en humilité, simplicité,
solidarité et hospitalité en dépassant chaque forme d’exploitation, de
s’embourgeoiser et de consommation. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

notre pauvreté dans le contexte de la pauvreté chrétienne en général&amp;nbsp;; et
celle-ci n’est pas autre que la représentation, le prolongement et le
complément de la &lt;b&gt;pauvreté du Christ&lt;/b&gt;
dans l’histoire (Cf. Col 1,24).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

nous pensons à la pauvreté du Christ, nous tendons à rester simplement dans
quelque chose d’extérieur, superficiel. Mais, en Jésus, les manifestations
externes de quelque chose – de pauvreté, dans ce cas, ont, oui, une valeur mais
relative, en tant qu’expression d’une réalité interne. Comme en chacun de nous.
Ainsi, quand lit-on qu’«&amp;nbsp;il n’avait pas ou poser sa tête&amp;nbsp;» (Mt
8,20&amp;nbsp;; cf. Lc 9,25), on parle de quelque chose d’externe&amp;nbsp;; la
signification et la racine de sa pauvreté, cependant, doit être cherchée en
quelque chose plus intime et profond. Pour mieux comprendre, faisons appel à
l’Apôtre Paul&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Vous connaissez la grâce de notre Seigneur
Jésus-Christ&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: FR;&quot;&gt;, qui pour vous
s&#39;est fait pauvre, de riche qu&#39;il était, afin que par sa pauvreté vous fussiez

La pauvreté fondamentale du Christ, qui est à la base
de toutes les éventuelles manifestations externes, est cet anéantissement, ce
vidange, ce dépouillement, cet appauvrissement&amp;nbsp;; dans une parole,
l’Incarnation.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

effet, cette pauvreté fondamentale consiste au renoncement volontaire, par
amour au Père et aux hommes devenus ses frères de chaire, à la situation divine
précédente&amp;nbsp; et à ses prérogatives&amp;nbsp;:
le fait qu’il se soit fait comme nous, et donc «&amp;nbsp;pauvre&amp;nbsp;», limité,
sujet à la réalité de créature humaine, «&amp;nbsp;en une chaire semblable à celle
du péché&amp;nbsp;» (Rm 8,3),&amp;nbsp;«&amp;nbsp;fait inferieur aux anges&amp;nbsp;» (He 2,9),
«&amp;nbsp;en tout semblable aux frères&amp;nbsp;» (He 2,17), ayant été lui-même tenté
comme nous en toutes choses, sans commettre de péché (He 4,15). Cela
signifie&amp;nbsp;: assujetti à la pauvreté de la douleur physique, du manque de
biens, de devoir croitre et apprendre humainement (Lc 2,40.52), à la passion et
mort&amp;nbsp;; assujetti à la pauvreté de la douleur psychique de
l’incompréhension, de ne pas réussir à se faire comprendre et accepter, de la
calomnie, de l’insulte … Pauvreté qui signifie renoncement aux propres pouvoirs
divins en Sa faveur, comme il apparait dans les tentations (Mt 4,3.6.9), au
Gethsémani (Mt 26,53-54), devant Caïphe (Mt 26,63-64) et Pilate (Jn 18,37), sur
la croix (Mt 27,42-43)&amp;nbsp;: une provocation constante à faire usage des
pouvoirs divins en Sa faveur auxquels il avait renoncé&amp;nbsp;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

synthétisant, derrière les manifestations externes de pauvreté, celle du Christ
apparait du fond&amp;nbsp;: il s’est fait comme nous pour nous faire comme Lui (cf.
2Cor 8,9). Et, la raison de cet appauvrissement (l’Incarnation) est Son
obéissance au Père (He 10,7; Jn 4,34; 5,30; Ph 2,8; Rm 5,19; He 5,8).
Obéissance, enfin, qui n’est pas esclavage ou oppression, mais plutôt
expression libre de son amour inconditionné au Père qui le porte à vivre une
attitude d’amour inconditionné aux hommes Ses frères, en se rendant solidaire
avec eux jusqu’à la mort (Jn 3,16; 15,9.12-14; 17,21-23; Mc 10,45; Ph
2,5-8)&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Je donne ma vie car je le veux et personne ne me
l’enlève&amp;nbsp;» (Jn 10,17-18). En partant donc de la réalité externe visible
jusqu’à la raison plus profonde, nous voyons que la processus est&amp;nbsp;: la
pauvreté externe comme conséquence (effet) de celle interne (l’Incarnation),
laquelle est conséquence de Son obéissance au Père, laquelle est conséquence de
Son amour au Père.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

raison/signification première et ultime, fondante de la pauvreté du Christ et,
donc, de celle de ses disciples. Le mystère trinitaire et le mystère du salut
sont un mystère de «&amp;nbsp;pauvreté&amp;nbsp;», c’est-à-dire, de donation totale de
soi, par amour à l’Autre.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

sens, Christ devient &lt;i&gt;le&lt;/i&gt; pauvre par
excellence&amp;nbsp;: nul n’a vécu ce que Lui a vécu et, en conséquence, n’a pas
renoncé comme Lui. Il se donne complètement, par amour et librement (Jn
10,17-18)&amp;nbsp;; Il vit dans une attitude de totale disponibilité à tout ce que
le Père veuille de Lui, détaché de tout et de tous (pauvreté), en commençant
par Sa famille naturelle (célibat), en faveur de la mission reçue (obéissance)
(Lc 2,49; Mt 12,49-50). Sur la croix, Il vécut le moment culminant de cette
pauvreté, en réagissant avec la majeure radicalité du pauvre biblique&amp;nbsp;:
sans biens (pauvreté matérielle), sans dignité ni droits reconnus (pauvreté
sociale et politique), opprimé par le pouvoir politique (Pilate, l’occupant)
et, ce qui était infiniment plus dramatique pour un hébreu, par le pouvoir
religieux (le Sanhedrin, le Grand Prêtre, l’autorité politico-religieuse
reconnue par Lui …&amp;nbsp;!)&amp;nbsp;; et même «&amp;nbsp;pauvre&amp;nbsp;» du Père, en Le
sentant maintenant loin, Lui qui peu avant avait dit que, même si tous&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: FR;&quot;&gt;l’auraient abandonné, Lui ne restait pas seul car le Père était avec Lui
(Jn 8,29; 16,32) … Et dans cette situation&amp;nbsp;
de pauvreté, déracinement et dénuement totale, il réagit avec un cri qui
est, en même temps, d’angoisse (parce qu’il est humain) et de confiance dans le
Père malgré tout, le cri de celui qui est devenu totalement pauvre, de celui
qui est resté sans aucun pouvoir et aucune sécurité en dehors de ce Dieu
lointain&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, pourquoi m’as-tu abandonné&amp;nbsp;?
(Mt 27,46; Ps 22). Quoi qu’il en soit&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Père, en tes mains je
remets mon esprit” (Lc 23,46; Ps 31,6). Et ainsi meurt-il (cf. VC 23). Ça semble
l’insuccès total&amp;nbsp;; et, au contraire, c’est le début de tout. Maintenant la
parole passe au Père, et le Père répondra vite&amp;nbsp;: en le ressuscitant&amp;nbsp;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 10.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 3.6pt; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

disponibilité totale au Père jusqu’à la croix (Ph 2,5-11) l’avait déjà porté,
durant sa vie publique, à vivre prêt et détaché en même temps, pour être libre
pour la mission, mu par l’amour au Père et aux frères. Il n’évite pas le
contact avec personne (Jn 6,37)&amp;nbsp;; et, en fait, au long de l’Evangile nous
trouvons autour de Jésus chaque type de personne. En même temps, cependant, il
se maintient libre de biens, des parents, de la politique, de la Loi, des
groupes de pouvoir … Sa pauvreté externe ne sera qu’une ascèse au style grec,
d’ailleurs, il sera accusé par certains du Baptiste de ne pas être assez
austère (Mt 9,14; 11,18-19), si bien qu’il vécut dans une insuffisance de biens
et de la sécurité humaine&amp;nbsp;: sans propre famille (Mt 19,10-12), refusé par
celle dans laquelle il était&amp;nbsp; né et
grandi (Mt 12,46-50), pourchassé par Ses compatriotes de Nazareth (Lc 4,16-30),
sans propres biens (Mt 8,20), hôte à la maison d’un disciple, Pierre (Lc
4,31-41; Mc 2,1), hôte des amis de Béthanie (Lc 10,38-42), aidé économiquement
par quelques riches femmes (Lc 8,1-3), enseveli dans une tombe empruntée (Jn
19,28; Mc 16,1; Lc 23,56)… Sa pauvreté n’est pas, avant tout un
«&amp;nbsp;renoncement à&amp;nbsp;», mais un «&amp;nbsp;choix en faveur de&amp;nbsp;», par
amour, avec toutes les conséquences, comprise l’éventualité de la mort sur la
croix.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Elle ne pourra être, en quelque manière, que comme celle du Christ. Nous
pouvons résumer sa signification en trois affirmations, chacune conséquence de
l’autre&amp;nbsp;:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

attitude et un vécu intérieur (cf.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: FR;&quot;&gt;Mt 5,3), fruit et conséquence
de la foi. Concrètement, on part de l’accueil de Dieu en Christ en tant que
centre et mouvant de la vie propre, c’est-à-dire, le primat de Dieu sur tout et
sur tous. Et, en conséquence, &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;la donation totale à Dieu en Christ, comme
l’Unique nécessaire&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. En d’autres termes, une vie de pauvreté qui&amp;nbsp;:
«&amp;nbsp;… confesse que Dieu est l’unique richesse de l’homme. Vécu sur l’exemple
du Christ qui « riche qu&#39;il était s&#39;est fait pauvre (2Cor 8,9), devient
expression du &lt;i&gt;don totale de soi que les
trois Personnes divine&amp;nbsp;se font réciproquement&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;» (VC21c). Dans ce
sens, la VC&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;en imitant sa &lt;i&gt;pauvreté&lt;/i&gt;
(du Christ), le confesse Fils qui reçoit tout du Père et, dans l’amour, lui
remet tout (cf. Jn 17,7.10)&amp;nbsp;» (VC 16c), et partage «&amp;nbsp;le désir
explicite de totale conformation à Lui&amp;nbsp;» (VC 18c).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 10.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 3.6pt; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

dimension christologico-trinitaire est la vraie source «&amp;nbsp;chrétienne&amp;nbsp;»
de la pauvreté. Pour nous, Dieu/Christ est l’unique bien vraiment nécessaire
(cf. Ps 15; Lc 10,42; VC 21c). Tout le reste continue à être valide et
«&amp;nbsp;aimable&amp;nbsp;»&amp;nbsp;; mais ça vient affectivement et effectivement
après&amp;nbsp;; pas seulement les biens mais aussi les personnes voire même sa
propre vie&amp;nbsp;: voilà&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;pourquoi&amp;nbsp;chaque
chrétien doit mettre dans le devis de sa vie même le martyr (cf. LG 42b, VC
86). Ceci est le «&amp;nbsp;cœur du pauvre&amp;nbsp;» de chaque disciple, la pauvreté
demandée à tous&amp;nbsp;! Le religieux le vivra dans sa manière particulière,
selon les caractéristiques de sa vocation. Son austérité de vie, son partage
communautaire des biens, etc., ne seront autre que proclamer ce primat de Dieu
et cette disponibilité aux frères.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

En second lieu, la pauvreté évangélique est &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;disponibilité
en faveur du Royaume&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. Elle n’est que la conséquence de ce qu’on a à
peine dit. Et l’attitude pratique de service et la pauvreté externe ne seront
autre que conséquence de cette attitude interne de liberté et disponibilité à
Dieu et aux frères, comme Christ. En fait, à l’imitation de Lui (cf. Ph 2,7),
le religieux se dépouille, se vide de soi-même, se détache de tout (personnes:
famille – célibat, biens: pauvreté matérielle, et autonomie: obéissance) avec
le but de rester ouvert et disponible à Dieu et aux frères. A cet égard, il met
avant tout sa propre personne (le bien plus grand qu’il a) à disposition&amp;nbsp;;
il se donne sans réserve, il se fait tout à tous (1Cor 9,19-23). Il devient
ainsi la représentation visible, dans l’histoire, de la donation totale du
Christ au Père et aux frères. Pauvreté donc comme donation, comme vie de
charité, d’amour et communion (1Jn 1,3), car ainsi est Dieu (1Jn 4, 8,16),
ainsi s’est-il manifesté (Jn 3, 16s) et ainsi nous a-t-il sanctifiés (Rm 5,5)
pas comme plaisir du vide, comme mépris de quelqu’un ou quelque chose, ou comme
simple ascétisme. L’ascèse sera certes nécessaire, mais comme aide
indispensable pour dépasser son propre égoïsme et favoriser la communion.
Comme, en fait, disait saint Paul&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: FR;&quot;&gt;Et quand je distribuerais tous mes biens pour la
nourriture des pauvres (pauvreté matérielle, comme faisaient certains
philosophes grecs), quand je livrerais même mon corps pour être brûlé (la mort
sanglante), si je n&#39;ai pas la charité, cela ne me sert de rien&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt; (1Cor 13,3). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 10.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 3.6pt; margin-top: 0cm; mso-add-space: auto; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

ce sens, la vie du religieux est appelée à devenir un état de disponibilité
universelle et inconditionnée, de service, solidarité, simplicité, surabondante
gratuité (cf. VC 104-105), agilité, désinstallation continue, selon les
caractéristiques de chaque charisme. Il devient un frère particulièrement
solidaire, libre, simple et disponible. Le «&amp;nbsp;professionnel&amp;nbsp;» de la
disponibilité et du partage, l’&amp;nbsp;«&amp;nbsp;expert de communion » (cf. RPU 24,
RD 5, VC 46a). En fait, il met à disposition de Dieu et des frères (obéissance)
sa personne, sa vie (l’unique qu’il a&amp;nbsp;!), son amour (célibat), ses choses
(pauvreté externe), ses qualités, son temps. Pour lui, n’importe quelle forme
d’individualisme, de repliement sur soi-même, d’égoïsme, de fermeture, de
négation de la parole ou du rapport humain, de manque de collaboration, de
paresse, de moindre effort, etc., sont tous des manques contre la pauvreté
évangélique, car ça signifierait qu’il ne donne pas, ne partage pas quelque
chose qu’il pourrait donner&amp;nbsp;! Voilà pourquoi la pauvreté évangélique
entraine aussi, clairement, la réalité économique&amp;nbsp;; mais, elle engage
beaucoup de plus que le portefeuille&amp;nbsp;: la vie, la personne toute
entière&amp;nbsp;!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

pauvreté signifie partage des biens&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. Rappelons que l’idéal de la
communauté de Jérusalem, paradigme de pauvreté chrétienne, ne fut pas le manque
de biens, mais le partage de ce qu’il y avait (cf. Act 2,42-47; 4,32; 5,16).
Pour le chrétien, en fait, les biens ne sont pas un mal, mais un bien à
partager, un moyen pour vivre et exprimer la communion.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

biens&amp;nbsp;: &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;- un partage à l’intérieur du groupe ou communauté,
entre ses membres, c’est-à-dire, la vie fraternelle (VFC 44e-h) et vers
l’extérieur, c’est-à-dire, la mission apostolique (VFC 59);&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;- et deux types de bien&amp;nbsp;: ceux matériels et
humains, et ceux spirituels. Chacun donne ce qu’il peut donner, accueil l’autre
ainsi comme est-il et est disposé à recevoir. La vie fraternelle et la mission
spécifique ne sont pas donc autres que les manifestations de la pauvreté
évangélique.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

concernant la pauvreté externe, celle-ci devient secondaire et inévitable en
même temps. Secondaire car l’important c’est la pauvreté intérieur&amp;nbsp;;
inévitable car l’homme est une réalité unique et, donc, la simplicité de vie et
l’austérité deviennent une aide indispensable pour rendre possible et crédible
la pauvreté interne. Voilà pourquoi, nonobstant sa secondarité, elle est le
banc de preuve (l’histoire le montre&amp;nbsp;!) de la pauvreté interne. Quand on &lt;i&gt;est&lt;/i&gt; pauvre, cela ne peut ne pas se
refléter sur ce qu’on &lt;i&gt;a&lt;/i&gt;. Bien que
cela se réfère aux aspects plus extérieurs et matériels, il faudra tenir
compte&amp;nbsp;:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

religieux aujourd’hui&amp;nbsp;: vœu de pauvreté ou de bonne classe moyenne&amp;nbsp;?
Parler de pauvreté est une mode ou une nécessité&amp;nbsp;?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

l’appréciation de la pauvreté et des pauvre a été le tourment plus adapté pour
mesurer la sincérité et la profondeur de ses reformes, au-delà des documents et
des belles paroles, toujours plus ou moins abondants.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

dans l’histoire de la Vie Consacrée. C’est un fait que le conseil évangélique
qui est à l’origine de tant de fondations, reformes et chutes, n’a pas été le
célibat ni l’obéissance à un supérieur, mais la pauvreté externe&amp;nbsp;: des
chaussés sont devenus des déchaussés, les uns se sont dédiés aux pauvres, les
autres aux plus pauvres parmi les pauvres … Et aujourd’hui, dans quelles
Constitutions reformées après le Vatican II ne se dit pas que ces religieux-là
veulent se dédier «&amp;nbsp;de manière particulière aux pauvres&amp;nbsp;?&amp;nbsp;»
C’est aussi significatif que dans l’Exhortation «&amp;nbsp;Vita Consecrata&amp;nbsp;»
on parle des conseils évangéliques en générale 38 fois, de l’ensemble
virginale-chaste-célibataire 49, d’obéissant - obéissance 41, et
pauvre-pauvreté 76&amp;nbsp;! Tout ceci veut nous dire qu’aussi dans la vie
consacrée actuelle, le vrai tourment de l’authenticité de vie, quant aux
conseils évangéliques, au-delà des discussions sur l’obéissance et les
difficultés dans l’angle affectif-sexuel, elle continue à être (comme toujours)
la compréhension et le vécu de la pauvreté. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

que, après avoir écrit deux livrets sur l’obéissance et sur la virginité, il ne
se décidait pas à en publier un autre sur la pauvreté. Et la raison qu’il
donnait était&amp;nbsp;: “Avec quel courage parlons-nous de pauvreté, quand ce qui
serait parmi nous considéré aujourd’hui comme pauvreté presque héroïque, pour
des millions d’êtres humains est un fait normal de tous les jours et de toute
la vie, quand, voire même, c’est un luxe&amp;nbsp;? Jeûner pour la vie au
«&amp;nbsp;pain et eau&amp;nbsp;» serait pour nous le maximum de l’austérité, tandis
que pour des millions des personnes avoir «&amp;nbsp;du pain et de l’eau
assurés&amp;nbsp;» serait déjà une sorte de rêve&amp;nbsp;» (&lt;b&gt;CANTALAMESSA&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Povertà&lt;/i&gt;, p.
5-6).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;Comment peut-on appeler «&amp;nbsp;pauvre&amp;nbsp;» dans la société un religieux
qui ha une maison, nourriture, travail, études et voire même la possibilité
(que plusieurs appellent «&amp;nbsp;droit&amp;nbsp;»&amp;nbsp;!) de jouir d’une période de
vacances annuelles ou une période sabbatique (même une année), sûr qu’au retour
il trouvera également ce qu’il avait laissé à son départ&amp;nbsp;? Ce sera que
parfois nous avons perdu même la capacité d’avoir honte de nos lamentations sur
des petites (ou grandes) bourgeoisies.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

dans la vie religieuse, l’institution offre à ses profès un ajustement sans
traumatismes particuliers, une solution «&amp;nbsp;light&amp;nbsp;». Il leur est
rassuré, à paroles et aux faits, une assistance totale à leurs besoins
basiques, tels que les besoins biologiques et vitaux pour la survie et le bien
être biophysique suffisant. Difficilement parmi nous il y a qui a des sérieux
motifs de plainte en matière de nourriture, repos, objets personnels, usage
d’objets communautaires, etc. En général, nous avons une teneur de vie qui se
place entre la classe moyenne et la classe haute du «&amp;nbsp;premier
monde&amp;nbsp;», avec une exception – dit-il – nous travaillons de moins de la
moyenne des personnes autour de nous qui nécessitent de gagner leur
subsistance. De fois, nos aspirations sont, dans ce domaine, celles de disposer
plus d’argent, plus de temps, faire les choses avec moins d’effort, avoir plus
d’objets et passetemps. La communauté pourvoit à notre subsistance, nous offre
une occupation, compagnie et cohabitation, un appui dans les moments
difficiles, personnels et familiaux, nous garantit le futur. Elle est, en un
mot, la «&amp;nbsp;grande maman&amp;nbsp;» qui a soin avec sollicitude et générosité
des besoins de ses fils et filles. En échange de tout cela, au religieux ou
religieuse est demandé d’être fidèle à son engagement, ce qui se traduit dans
le vivre en communauté, être ce que nous appelons un «&amp;nbsp;bon religieux ou
bonne religieuse&amp;nbsp;» qui accomplit ses devoirs et fait tout ce qui lui est
demandé. Une attitude, donc, dépendante, d’ordre et de discipline, de
déroulement adéquat de ses propres devoirs, sans majeure prétention, dans une
continuité qui sauvegarde les principes, les normes et les œuvres de
l’institution. En ce sens, il verra ses besoins d’estime, de rapport et de
sécurité atteints (&lt;i&gt;cf. J.L. Martinez,
Costruir la vida, 123-124&lt;/i&gt;).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Martínez dit là n’est pas à généraliser. Mais il fait penser car, certainement,
il y a du vrai. Dans l’assemblée de l’U.S.G (Union des Supérieurs Généraux) du
mois de novembre 2013, un Supérieur général affirmait&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;En
Occident, en fait, souvent nous avons fait des grands discours, publié des volumes
plus ou moins intéressants sur la pauvreté, mais nous sommes restés aux
paroles. D’autre part, pas rarement, les religieux du Tiers monde sont venus en
Occident (à Rome, par exemple) pour nous parler de la pauvreté de leurs
compatriotes et de l’urgence de s’incarner dans cette réalité-là&amp;nbsp;; mais,
parfois, leurs paroles ont laissé les auditeurs mêmement perplexes ou
sceptiques en voyant la teneur de vie personnelle, les habits de marque, les
appareils dont ils étaient ornés, ou les tournées touristiques qu’ils avaient
faits avant d’arriver chez nous&amp;nbsp; et/ou
celles qu’ils se promettaient de faire encore avant de retourner chez leurs
pauvres … En contraposition avec cette attitude, combien de fois, religieux
d’ici et de là, ont-ils parlé de moins et sont allés simplement vivre pauvres
parmi les pauvres pour leur donner un coup de main avec la vie plus que les
paroles&amp;nbsp;!&amp;nbsp;» &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;4) Quelque élément pratique pour
un vécu différencié, pas toujours facile soit au point de vu charismatique que
social&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

des suggestions sur le mode de vivre la pauvreté aujourd’hui. La raison est la
diversité des circonstances, mais aussi la situation contradictoire en laquelle
souvent nous nous trouvons, soit au niveau d’œuvres que de formation des
individus. D’une part, dans les Constitutions et Règles on insiste sur un
radicalisme soit dans le vécu personnel que dans la rencontre avec les
pauvres&amp;nbsp;; de l’autre, nous sommes dans une société qui offre des
possibilités nouvelles et utiles, par exemple, dans le domaine de la formation,
mais aussi cela nous pousse continuellement, et presque sans que nous nous
rendions compte, vers une consommation et progressive bourgeoisie qui est une
des problèmes graves et urgents de la vie consacrée actuelle. C’est une
mentalité contraire à une vie pauvre et, voire même, austère qui tente de
s’emparer de nous quotidiennement et en mode parfois insolent et parfois
subtile, en créant «&amp;nbsp;exigences et droits&amp;nbsp;» qui ne résistent pas à la
confrontation avec les critères des Constitutions. Et je voudrais aussi
rappeler que tout cela, grâce aux moyens de communication sociale, n’a pas des
frontières fermées, ne conditionne pas seulement les religieux de vie active
mais aussi contemplative, les religieux du Premier Monde mais aussi et non
moins ceux du Tiers Monde que ce soit quand ces derniers se trouvent chez-nous
ou quand ils retournent chez eux.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

aujourd’hui. Il y a le danger d’offrir aux formandi tant de possibilités,
facilitations et commodités (argent, instruments de travail, voyages,
passetemps, etc.) pour les préparer de manière erronée pour une vie de joyeuse
abnégation, quelle devra être leur vie consacrée plus tard. Certainement nous
ne sommes pas en train de préparer un bon futur pour l’Institut et pour
l’Eglise si les candidats grandissent humainement et spirituellement faibles,
paresseux, capricieux ou bourgeois. Danger pressant pas seulement dans le cas
d’un candidat né et grandit dans une situation économique parfois basse et qui,
maintenant se trouve plus «&amp;nbsp;riche&amp;nbsp;» qu’avant, et bien qu’avec le vœu
de pauvreté (cf. PO 9a, RPU 23-24, PI 14, VC 65-68). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 11pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

possible et prudent, mais aussi en conformité avec notre charisme et mission,
on doit offrir aux nouveaux religieux ces possibilités-là de formation humaine,
culturelle et spirituelle qui, peut-être, les générations précédentes n’avaient
pas, mais qu’aujourd’hui sont jugées valides ou, voire même, nécessaires. En
d’autres termes, il ne vaut plus la peine dire «&amp;nbsp;A’ mon époque … ceci n’y
était pas, nous ne l’avons pas eu, ce n’était pas nécessaire …&amp;nbsp;» et, donc,
«&amp;nbsp;non plus vous …&amp;nbsp;». La vie change, l’histoire se meut. Nonobstant
cela, je crois qu’on ne doit pas avoir peur de freiner l’éventuelle demande
juvénile des moyens toujours plus nouveaux et sophistiqués, ou des expériences
continuelles quand elles emmènent seulement au désespoir, à un papillonnage
d’ici et là, à la superficialité, à commencer beaucoup de choses mais pour ne
conclure que peu ou rien, ou à négliger la formation de la volonté, de l’esprit
de prière personnelle ou communautaire, ou la collaboration avec les autres
confrères dans les travaux, aussi humbles, de la communauté. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;FR&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Le jeune en formation a
besoin, en cette période de sa vie, d’une forte expérience, entre autre, de vie
communautaire. Et ceci n’advient pas si les individus sont laissés presque à
eux-mêmes, comme si leurs formateurs ne sauraient ou n’auraient de force pour
diriger leur formation, ou parce qu’ils sont pris par d’autres activités plus
«&amp;nbsp;intéressantes&amp;nbsp;» ou gratifiantes (cf. PI 28). Ou, à l’inverse, le
formateur est tellement omniprésent qu’il ne laisse pas respirer les formandi,
avoir leurs initiatives et responsabilités (quand, par exemple, avant d’entrer
en formation ils avaient assumé des responsabilités sociales et
apostoliques&amp;nbsp;!).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

formandi doit expérimenter en quelque mesure (comme et plus encore de ses
compagnons) que la vie coute et qu’il doit se gagner le pain. Dans la maison de
formation on risque parfois de garder le formandi dans une sorte de serre
irréelle et anti formative, tandis que les compagnons fatiguent
normalement&amp;nbsp;! Ainsi ne le forme-t-on pas pour le futur, mais on
l’infantilise, on le maintient dans une situation d’immaturité et socialement
fausse. Le couvent ne peut pas devenir la «&amp;nbsp;mère grande&amp;nbsp;» qui doit
pourvoir et donner tout à ses «&amp;nbsp;enfants&amp;nbsp;»&amp;nbsp;! Mais il n’est pas
dit que, pour éviter tout cela, le formandi doive par force aller faire un
travail à caractère&amp;nbsp; salarial en dehors
de la maison&amp;nbsp;; aussi étudier, faire la catéchèse, s’occuper du téléphone
ou de la porte, nettoyer les lieux communautaires, et autres engagements
semblables, sont des modes valides de gagner son pain. N’oublions pas qu’à
personne n’existent pas des travaux ou services indignes ou humiliants si au
milieu il y a la charité et l’humilité … Et ceci, pas seulement dans le cas du
formandi mais aussi dans celui des adultes, qu’ils aient ou pas des titres ou
charges importants&amp;nbsp;: il suffit de regarder la vie de nos Fondateurs, et
surtout du Christ («&amp;nbsp;le Seigneur et le Maitre&amp;nbsp;», Jn 13,14) en lavant
les pieds des disciples et les exhortant à se les laver les uns les autres (Jn
13,1-170, à se servir réciproquement (Mc10,35-45), comme nous rappelle la VC
75. Et si quelque habitude ou culture n’admettait pas tout cela, elle serait à
transformer, évangéliser et convertir, si elle veut être considérée
«&amp;nbsp;chrétienne&amp;nbsp;».&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

avons dit, est le banc de preuve de la pauvreté interne, c’est le miroir de
l’esprit intérieur qui nous anime, comme dans l’amour entre deux jeunes, des
signes externes (un baiser, une caresse) sont signes efficaces du sentiment
interne que l’un a pour l’autre&amp;nbsp;; une attention particulière vers les
pauvre, la sobriété dans le vêtir, capacité de mortification et
renoncement&amp;nbsp;: sont tous signes externe d’un vrai esprit de pauvreté.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

avec les biens matériels (argent, biens …) nous dit de quel esprit de pauvreté
sommes-nous animés. Aussi la gestion des biens entre-t-elle dans cette logique.
Plusieurs fois à l’interne de nos communautés le responsable de la gestion
(Supérieur ou économe qui devrait interagir avec le Supérieur) agit comme s’il
s’agissait de biens personnels, sans rendre compte à personne, en prenant des
décisions sans le chapitre local. Et tout cela nonobstant qu’à plusieurs
reprises il y ait eu des rappels pour un compte rendu au moins trimestriel dans
le chapitre local et pour une gestion transparente (= gestion à la lumière du
soleil et maximum d’honnêteté). Cela signifie mettre à table l’état
patrimoniale de la communauté ou de la paroisse, en rendant compte des entrées
et des sorties et en montrant tout ce qui est épargne (livrets postaux, compte
bancaire …) ou les sorties (pièces d’appui, factures …).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

demandé aussi à ceux qui ont la responsabilité de guider une communauté
paroissiale&amp;nbsp;; les organes demandés à l’interne de la Paroisse (conseil
paroissial et commission économique) ne peuvent pas être laissées dans
l’obscurité sur la situation patrimoniale-économique de la paroisse.
Rappelons-nous que nous devons répondre de notre gestion à Dieu et aux hommes
(responsabilité civile)&amp;nbsp;! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

je ne parviens pas à comprendre la répulsion de tant de confrères à montrer au

dérivant du travail qu’ils exercent&amp;nbsp;!!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

l’Ordre se manifeste aussi dans le mode de gérer les biens de l’Ordre, avoir à
cœur les projets du même Ordre et contribuer personnellement (comme communauté)
à la réalisation de ces projets, maintenance des structures que nous utilisons

gestion malhonnête et de tomber dans les griffes de quelque malhonnête

pauvreté évangélique avec la misère ou le manque de joie et bonheur&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. En
entrant dans la Vie consacrée, le religieux est en train de chercher celle
qu’il croit que sera son bonheur, pas seulement spirituel, mais aussi
humain&amp;nbsp;! Il serait prendre une mauvaise route le fait de mettre en relief
ou concevoir la radicalité de la Vie consacrée comme une espèce de masochisme
travesti de spiritualité, de purgatoire terrestre, ou le fait de nier n’importe
quel type de satisfaction en attente de la bienheureuse éternité … Le
religieux, comme chaque autre chrétien, doit surement accepter avec courage les
joies et les renoncements de sa vocation&amp;nbsp;; mais, il doit aussi pouvoir
démontrer et proclamer avec son existence que la consécration à Dieu et aux
frères rend heureux, pas seulement spirituellement, mais aussi
humainement&amp;nbsp;! Il n’y a pas de pire anti témoignage de celui d’un religieux
qui n’est pas mûr&amp;nbsp;; qui est infantile, insatisfait, frustré, irritable,
bagarreur ou triste. Qu’on lise ce que dit mieux le document «&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;La vie fraternelle en communauté n. 28&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;».&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Seigneur ressuscité par la route d’un interminable vendredi saint, mais plutôt
dans la joie pascale et humaine d’appartenir totalement à Lui. Le religieux ne
fait pas vœu d’accablement perpétuel, ainsi qu’on ne se consacre pas à Dieu
pour éviter les ennuis familiaux. Sa vie sera simple, austère, laborieuse et
responsable, sereine, réaliste et joyeuse, humainement et chrétiennement mûr,
et être ainsi le plus possible disponible à Dieu et aux frères.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

un don que Dieu lui a fait en nous. Nous ne pouvons pas désappointer ni le

since I decided to begging my seminary formation. To make the story short,
though I had the feeling and attraction towards the priesthood and especially
towards the religious life it never crossed my mind to ask for admittance. But
little I knew then that God really works in mysterious ways. I was some kind of
leader of the Spanish youth group in Goose Creek South Carolina, USA. I was
then coordinating a weekend retreat for them and as I was walking with Fr.
Frank Palmieri our pastor then, talking about the arrangements and schedule of
the retreat, I suddenly remember that one of the youth was interested to enter
the seminary. I asked then Fr. Frank information about it, who told me that he
would relay the message to Fr. Liam Panganiban vocational director then of the
Adorno Fathers, and that I should also approach him. It took a while until I
approach him, this was because I was not the one yet, interested in the seminary.
But it was time when I was quite active in the parish and all of these prayer
congress and Eucharistic congress that suddenly I decided this time that I
wanted to enter the seminary. I started then looking for places to enter, and
to my surprise I was given no hope on any of them. I literally lost hope and
decided I would not try anymore. But while I was in the Adoration Chapel saying
vespers with Fr. Liam, the reading of the day struck my heart so much that I
don’t know where I got the strength but at the end I found myself talking to
Fr. Liam after the benediction and reposition. He told me, he was waiting for
me and so we talked about the possibilities to enter the seminary. He told me
then that the only way to enter the seminary was for me to go to the
Philippines to which I responded without hesitation, “if that is what I have to
do to become a priest, that I will do”. I passed then more than six months
waiting for the Order to approve my admittance to the seminary. I remember
going every week to Fr. Liam asking if there he had news about the matter. I
have to admit I was losing hope again. But once again, God surprised me one
more time. It was time for the canonical visit to the community by the Superior
General of the Order and Fr. Frank got me an interview with him, which ended up
with Fr. General giving me an apple and welcoming me as an aspirant to the
Order. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Thought the change of life, culture,
language and weather was not easy at all, with the grace of God I was able to
adjust myself in a short period of time. Of course life as a seminarian is not
easy at all, it is full of challenges all along the way. Challenges in the
spiritual, academic, community and apostolate aspect which sometimes bring you
down and even make you believe you are not fit for the religious life. But the
grace of God is greater than any challenge one can find that at the end, one
really come to understand the words of St. Paul. “It is when I am weak that I
am more strong” (2 Chor. 13:10) because the grace of God is enough, and his
power is at its best when we find ourselves in weakness. (2Chor. 12:9) it is
then not because of my own merit but because of the Grace and Mercy of God that
after five years of formation, from aspirancy to postulacy and followed by
noviciate I have been blessed enough to have received the Religious habit as a
Simple Professed brother in the Order of the Clerics Regular Minor on June 8,
2014. It has been really a blessing that was manifested in a numerous ways. In
the same way that God called me to this order, he has also given me the
religious habit. Not mentioning the difficulties that we went through before
the day of profession, on the same day which we also celebrated the blessing
and dedication of the new Theology House, we were sadden by the absence of our
Fr. Noly who was confined in the hospital, three of our brothers were in bed
sick and electricity was cut off also by the electric company due to some
renovations they were doing around the area. The hesitation and last minute
preparations for the two events made me also a little nervous, but what was
more difficult than anything was the fact that I felt some kind of loneliness
to see myself away from my family on a very special day of my life while others
had theirs at their side. Little I knew that it was God welcoming me to my new
family. After everything was finish I reflected more calmly on the little
things that happened that made me smile and say thanks God for the love you
give me. I realize that, that feeling loneliness lead me to find refuge in
prayer and to really open my arms to embrace him with all my heart as I
professed my temporary vows. And on the other side God was welcoming me
mysteriously as he showed me into what kind of family he had called me to live.
This was with little acts of love I saw and experience from members of the
Order towards me and towards other members. First the concern of Fr. Edd and
Fr. Melvin, who was visiting, towards us and all his advices he gave us,
treating us as members of the order as part of the family. Secondly the concern
of our Fr. Noly who exhausted himself to the point that he had to be confined,
just because he did all he could to make that day special for us. Third, the
fatherly concerned of our Fr. General who did not hesitate to send our brothers
who were sick to rest and even sending me to buy medicine for them, it was an
act of love that made me smile and be happy to become member of such a
Religious Order. The way our Father Delegate and our Local Superior attended to
our Father Noly bringing him to the Hospital is something that touched my
heart. And of course all the support that I personally received from our novice
master and formators in the local community who never failed to make me feel
part of the Order. All of those little details that gave witness to the words
that Fr. General addressed to us during his homily for the simple profession
that we must strive to become good religious by living the example and charism
that our Holy Founders set in front of us. To be religious with a heart full of
God that shows concern to their confreres. Because that is the only way that
people would rally experience God in us. Through authentic Charity. Had come to
make sense at the end. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Thus
reflecting upon the difficulties and challenges that had to happen before
receiving the habit and those simple gestures of brotherly concern, I realized
that it was God welcoming me to my new life by showing me that, though I felt
alone and overwhelmed by the event, he had never left my side. He really showed
me that without the cross there is no life. What I thought was something bad
was the way God was showing me that all I need was to learn how to see His
grace. That whatever sacrifice and difficulty I had to go through at the end if
I do it for his sake, the reward will be waiting for me. In this case, after
all this sacrifice and challenges over five years, he has rewarded me with the
religious habit that I longed to wear and with a new family. And now I just
have to trust and to believe that is His grace that will keep me worthy of
wearing it and giving witness to the religious life and the vows I’ve
professed, always for the Greater Glory of the Risen Christ.&amp;nbsp; God really works in mysterious ways, that
even if weakness overpowers me, it is then that his grace and power will
manifest in its fullness. All I have to do is to trust.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

2014, the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity marks the very important date for
Bro. Arnel Hagos, CRM and Bro. Arman Hagos CRM. It was the day when they
solemnly professed their vows of chastity, poverty, obedience and of not
seeking ecclesiastical honors. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;They continued
their journey in the religious life in the United Stated of America while
studying at Immaculate Conception Seminary in South Orange, New Jersey. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;After their
theological studies and discernment they came back to the Philippines in 2013
in order to do pastoral works in the parish and at our seminary in Vinzons. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;After 12 years
of preparation and discernment, these brothers freely and deliberately made the
solemn profession of vows publicly and before the presence of the Very
Reverend. Fr. Raffaelle Mandolesi, CRM, superior general of the Order. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;The celebration
began at 4:30 in the afternoon in the Chapel of Jesus Our Risen Savior. It was
a joyful moment not only for the brothers and their family but in a special way
for the Adorno Fathers of the US-Philippine delegation and the People of God.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;Fr. Raffaelle
said in his homily that God indeed is gracious for calling these young men to
dedicate their lives to follow Jesus. He also thanked the family for their
generosity and support for the brothers.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;God indeed is at
work in their lives. Just like the call of Jeremiah, they were destined to do
great things for the people of God. “&lt;i&gt;Before
I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you&lt;/i&gt;”
Jeremiah 1:5. They are companions from conception to consecration to God in the
family of the Clerics Regular Minor (Adorno Fathers and Brothers). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;…the Rite&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;The rite of
solemn profession of the CRM summarizes the entire life of a religious. Looking
at them prostrated before the altar while all are singing the litany reminds
them that they are not alone in the journey towards holiness. The whole array
of holy men and women, martyrs, founders and all the saints are praying for
them. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;The washing of
feet is the hallmark of their apostolate in this religious consecration. To
give humble service to God in others and to never get tired of doing so because
of that burning love they have for Jesus. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;The handing of
the crucifix marks the life of Jesus Christ embedded in consecrated life. Their
offering is the offering of their very life for Jesus. To whatever place they
may go, and to whatever work they may do, the crucifix will remind them that
Jesus is the center of their life. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;…&lt;i&gt;God’s Love&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;When asked about
how they feel about their solemn profession of vows, the brothers responded
that it is God’s Love and nothing else. “This love is so sublime, so divine
that even in our unworthiness, God called us to follow Him in the religious
life.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;They are very
much like two of Jesus’ disciples, James and John whom he called “&lt;i&gt;sons of thunder&lt;/i&gt;” Mark 3:17. Aware of
their limitations and weaknesses, they know that Jesus alone can transform them
in order to carry out the will of God with complete obedience. Just as the
“sons of thunder” in the Gospels became close to Jesus, these two young ‘sons
of thunder’ desire to be conformed to Jesus as well in the vows they solemnly
professed. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;This memorable
celebration has inspired our other young men in formation who have witnessed
for the first time the solemn profession of vows. The brothers showed the
religious present, the aspirants, postulants, novices and the whole world that
they were fully resolved and ready to take upon them the life of Jesus Christ. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;The Unity of the
Trinity is expressed in the Father’s love for humanity. For, “&lt;i&gt;God so loved the world that he gave his only
Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have
eternal life&lt;/i&gt;” John 3:16. The brother’s religious consecration is a
communion of this burning love of God through our Lord Jesus Christ. &lt;i&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot;&gt;The community in
Vinzons, the US-Philippine delegation and all Adorno Fathers and Brothers
around the world are grateful to God for these brave young men. We welcomed
them in the family with an embrace of peace. We pray that God will always
inspire them and make them grow in perfect charity in the path they have chosen
for the greater glory of Risen Christ.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.blogger.com/null&quot; name=&quot;_GoBack&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Il 21 giugno a
Roccamontepiano c’è stata grande festa per la professione semplice di Francesco
Iannamico che dopo un anno di noviziato&amp;nbsp;
guidato dal suo maestro p. Giulio Capetola, ha pronunciato il suo sì
davanti alla comunità raccolta nella bellissima chiesa del convento addobbata a
festa.&amp;nbsp; Il Padre Generale ha infatti
commentato all&#39;inizio “oggi è un giorno di festa e di gioia per la famiglia
caracciolina, per la famiglia di Francesco e per la comunità di
Roccamontepiano”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Standard&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 14.6pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Francesco in un
anno, a Rocca, ha saputo conquistare con la sua dolcezza e semplicità tutti gli
abitanti; molti si sono stretti a lui specialmente da San Rocco dove Francesco
frequentava tutti gli incontri.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Standard&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 14.6pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Insieme ai
confratelli, familiari e amici provenienti da varie parti, che hanno voluto
stringersi&amp;nbsp; a Francesco per pregare con
lui e per lui, la celebrazione si è svolta in un clima di festa ma anche di
profondo raccoglimento e commozione.&amp;nbsp; Ben
curata nei minimi dettagli, LA MESSA è stata animata dal coro della parrocchia
di San Rocco e la liturgia curata dal cerimoniere Andrea Pomponio seminarista
diocesano.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Standard&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 14.6pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;I testimoni sono
stati P. Amedeo di Carlo e p. Giuseppe Lucarelli. La comunità di
Roccamontepiano si è riunita intorno a lui nella gioia ed è stato bello vederli
tutti insieme anche con altri sacerdoti e religiosi provenienti da vari posti.
Vedere P. Amedeo, decano dell’ordine che fa da testimone a Francesco, è stato
un evento straordinario specialmente per la gente di Rocca che lo conosce da
una vita. La sua espressione commossa e meravigliata unita a quella di Francesco
molto tranquilla e abbandonata in Dio e a quella di p. Giuseppe visibilmente
commosso è stato motivo di lode a Dio per tutti noi.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Nella sua omelia
p. Raffaele, si è soffermato su due punti: da una parte il vangelo della
solennità del Corpus Domini (Gesù che si dona, si fa pane spezzato per la vita
del mondo)&amp;nbsp; e dall&#39;altra la chiamata di
speciale consacrazione, come risposta all’amore oblativo del Cristo per noi.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Standard&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 14.6pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: F;&quot;&gt;«Dopo gli anni di formazione iniziale e di discernimento – ha detto tra
l’altro il celebrante – fatti di preghiera, di studio e di esperienza, ora
Francesco ha deciso di donarsi al Cristo, che lo ha chiamato ‘Vieni e seguimi’
(Gv, 1,43), ‘Tu mi appartieni’, e lui ha risposto: ‘Mi hai sedotto Signore e io
mi son lasciato sedurre’ (Ger 20,7). &lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: 0.1pt;&quot;&gt;E&#39; il mistero della vocazione che si concretizza nell&#39;incontro di due ‘sì’,
il divino e &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: 0.3pt;&quot;&gt;l&#39;umano, il ‘si’
di Dio che chiama, e il nostro ‘sì’ che&amp;nbsp;
rispondiamo.&lt;/span&gt; Dall’incontro di questi due ‘sì’ inizia la
meravigliosa avventura di una nuova vita che sarà vissuta nell’amore e per
amore&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: 0.65pt;&quot;&gt;». &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;letter-spacing: 0.3pt;&quot;&gt;Dio chiama Francesco al suo servizio
perché lo ama con un amore speciale, un amore che va oltre la nostra misura e
immaginazione: “ Non voi avete scelto me, ma io ho scelto voi e vi ho
costituiti perché andiate e portiate frutto”(Gv 15,16).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;Standard&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 14.6pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;, serif; font-size: 12pt; letter-spacing: 0.3pt;&quot;&gt;Con l’emissione della professione semplice,
il compito di Francesco, sarà quello di impegnarsi ad essere in mezzo ai
fratelli il riflesso del volto casto, povero, obbediente e umile di Cristo.
Compito non facile, ma possibile se vive in stretta amicizia con il Cristo, se
l’Eucaristia sarà al centro della sua spiritualità, se ama la vita in comune
con i fratelli e se il carisma proprio di san Francesco Caracciolo continua ad
affascinarlo. Per tre anni farà questa esperienza; se al termine del triennio,
la nuova esperienza avrà dato risposta alle sue aspirazioni più profonde,
Francesco sarà pronto per consacrarsi definitivamente al Signore. L’importante
che non ci siano resistenze interne od esterne all’azione della grazia. E’
importante che tutti noi, confratelli famiglia ed amici, accompagniamo con la
preghiera il suo cammino». &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Il momento della
vestizione è stato il più commovente. Francesco davanti al P. Generale
affiancato dai due testimoni e dietro di lui i suoi genitori… un quadro unico,
meraviglioso. Tutti hanno lodato e ringraziato Dio per l’ineffabile dono della
vita consacrata. Noi del coro siamo stati privilegiati perché tutto è avvenuto
davanti ai nostri occhi. Tutti commossi e stupefatti dalla gioia e dalla
meraviglia. Non capita certo tutti i giorni vedere un ragazzo giovane
pronunciare i voti di castità povertà e obbedienza e soprattutto sentire la
formula: ”ti cingo con il cingolo della purezza e della mortificazione”. I
ragazzi presenti mi hanno fatto molte domande. Alla fine abbiamo concluso con
un rinfresco fraterno all’aperto, circondati dalla meravigliosa natura dove
tutti hanno partecipato; è stato veramente bellissimo vedere la famiglia caracciolina
riunita nella gioia e per noi è stato ancora di più motivo di lode a Dio e di
ringraziamento.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

povertà, obbedienza e di non cercare onori ecclesiastici.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

due fratelli provenienti dal sud della regione di Bicol (Filippine), dalla
città di Irosin, sono entrati nel seminario degli Adorno Fathers and Brothers
(Padri e Fratelli Caracciolini) nel 2002. Cominciarono il noviziato nel 2007 e,
un anno dopo, fecero la loro professione temporanea dei voti.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

continuato la loro formazione religiosa negli Stati Uniti d’America studiando
al seminario dell’Immacolata Concezione in South Orange, New Jersey.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Dopo
il periodo di studi teologici e di discernimento della vocazione, questi
fratelli tornarono nelle Filippine nel 2013 per fare un’esperienza di ministero
pastorale in una parrocchia e nel nostro seminario di Vinzons.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Dopo
12 anni di preparazione, questi fratelli, in piena libertà e consapevolezza,
hanno fatto pubblicamente la professione solenne (perpetua) dei voti nelle mani
del Rev.mo P. Raffaele Mandolesi, CRM, Preposito Generale dell’Ordine.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;La
celebrazione ebbe inizio alle 16,30 nella cappella di “Gesù Risorto Nostro
Salvatore”. E’ stato un momento di gioia non solo per i fratelli e la loro
famiglia, ma anche, in una maniera speciale, per gli Adorno Fathers della
Delegazione USA-Filippine e per il Popolo di Dio.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Nella
sua omelia, P. Raffaele ha sottolineato la benevolenza di Dio nel chiamare
questi giovani a dedicare la propria vita nella sequela di Gesù. Ha anche
ringraziato la famiglia per la generosità e sostegno dati ai loro figli.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

veramente è al lavoro in loro. Come nella chiamata di Geremia, essi sono stati
destinati a compiere grandi cose per il Popolo di Dio. &lt;i&gt;“Prima di formarti nel grembo ti ho conosciuto, prima della tua nascita
io ti ho consacrato”&lt;/i&gt; (Geremia 1, 5). Questi nostri fratelli sono stati
compagni dal concepimento alla consacrazione nella famiglia dei Chierici
Regolari Minori.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

rito della Professione solenne dei CRM riassume l’intera vita di un religioso.
Mentre erano prostrati davanti all’altare al canto delle litanie dei santi,
essi sono stati aiutati a ricordare che non erano soli nel viaggio verso la
santità. Tutta la schiera di santi uomini e donne, di martiri, di fondatori
stava pregando per loro.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;La
lavanda dei piedi è il segno del loro apostolato di consacrati: offrire un
umile servizio a Dio presente nei fratelli e mai stancarsi in questo lavoro
perché aiutati dal grande amore che hanno per Gesù.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;La
consegna del crocifisso è il segno della vita di Cristo inserita nella vita
consacrata. La loro offerta è l’offerta della loro vita a Gesù. In qualunque
posto essi vadano e in qualunque ministero siano coinvolti, il crocefisso
ricorderà loro che Gesù deve essere il centro della loro vita.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Alla
domanda di cosa sentissero riguardo alla loro Professione solenne, i fratelli
hanno risposto di essere coscienti dell’Amore di Dio e nient’altro. “Questo
Amore è così sublime, così divino che pur nella nostra indegnità, Dio ci ha
chiamati a seguirlo nella vita religiosa”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Assomigliano
molto a due dei discepoli di Gesù, Giacomo e Giovanni, da lui chiamati &lt;i&gt;“figli del tuono” &lt;/i&gt;(Mc 3, 17). Conoscendo
i loro limiti e debolezze, Arnel&amp;nbsp; e Arman
sanno che soltanto Gesù può trasformarli per compiere la volontà di Dio in
piena obbedienza. Come i due discepoli sono diventati intimi con Gesù, così
anche questi due fratelli “figli del tuono” desiderano essere conformati a Gesù
attraverso i voti solenni professati.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Questa
memorabile celebrazione è stata di ispirazione per i nostri seminaristi che
l’hanno vista per la prima volta. I due fratelli hanno mostrato ai religiosi,
agli aspiranti, ai postulanti, ai novizi presenti e a tutto il mondo di essere
consapevolmente decisi e pronti a prendere su di sé la stessa vita di Gesù
Cristo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;L’unità
della Trinità è espressa nell’amore del Padre per l’umanità. Infatti &lt;i&gt;“Dio ha tanto amato il mondo da dare il suo
Figlio unigenito, perché chiunque crede in lui non vada perduto, ma abbia la
vita eterna” &lt;/i&gt;(Gv 3, 16). La consacrazione religiosa dei fratelli è
comunione con questo ardente amore di Dio per mezzo di nostro Signore Gesù
Cristo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Comunità di Vinzons, la Delegazione USA- Filippine e tutti i Padri e Fratelli
Caracciolini nel mondo sono grati a Dio per questi due giovani coraggiosi. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

accogliamo nella nostra Famiglia con un abbraccio di pace. Preghiamo che Dio
voglia sempre ispirarli e farli crescere nella carità perfetta, nella via che
hanno scelto per la Maggior Gloria del Cristo Risorgente. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;This past June 2, 2014, I had the
opportunity to travel to the Philippines to visit our Adorno Father communities
and also to accompany our Father General for his canonical visit.&amp;nbsp; One of the highlights of our visit was the
blessing of our new chapel and Theologate in Lipa City, Batangas which took
place on June 8, 2014.&amp;nbsp; Notwithstanding a
power outage and Father Noly Berjuega, CRM ending up in the hospital to recover
from an illness, this event certainly turned out to be a grace from Our Lord.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;The source of our grace is
certainly linked to the Eucharist, the source and summit of our every
sanctification.&amp;nbsp; This reality is truly
manifested in one of my favorite images of Saint Francis Caracciolo.&amp;nbsp; It is that of his statue in Villa Santa Maria
where he is seen holding in one hand the Holy Eucharist and in the other hand,
a loaf of bread which represents food for the poor and needy.&amp;nbsp; The saying “From bread received to bread
shared” is what comes to mind.&amp;nbsp; In other
words, the presence of Jesus we receive in the Eucharist is to be shared with
others in our daily life.&amp;nbsp; The new
chapel, dedicated to the Most Blessed Sacrament, will be for our young theology
students, formators, benefactors and friends a place where Jesus is encountered
in prayer and service.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;In describing the chapel on the
Vocation Facebook page for the Adorno Fathers, Father Melvin Avilla, CRM noted
that “our new seminary chapel in Lipa City is a masterpiece both aesthetically
and in the element of the divine. But it became even more beautiful when the
faithful came and filled it to overflowing to celebrate its dedication and
consecration on June 7&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;.&amp;nbsp;
Many people from as near as Makati City to as far as Catanduanes came to
witness the unfolding of God&#39;s love.”&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;June 8, 2014 was Pentecost
Sunday.&amp;nbsp; The Mass began with a ribbon
cutting in ceremony at the doorway of the new chapel.&amp;nbsp; This represents the formal entrance into the
house of God.&amp;nbsp; The actual ribbon cutting
was done by the Very Reverend Raffaele Mandolesi, CRM, Superior General, and
Mr. Antonio Montinola who most graciously donated the land to the Adorno
Fathers.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Also present was the Most
Reverend Salvador Quizon, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of Lipa, and other Adorno
Fathers and Seminarians and the People of God.&amp;nbsp;
&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;Throughout the actual rite, there
were many symbolisms which pointed to the holiness of what was happening.&amp;nbsp; One notable gesture was when Cardinal Rosales
solemnly dedicated and consecrated the altar.&amp;nbsp;
Like a tongue of fire, the incense was ignited in majestic yellow and
red after sacred chrism was poured upon the altar.&amp;nbsp; The walls of the chapel were also consecrated
with the sacred chrism by Father General and Father Jun Abog, CRM, the local
superior of the Philippine communities.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;In his homily, Cardinal Rosales
underlined the vivifying presence of the Holy Spirit and how we, as Christians,
must become the “building blocks of faith” as we strive to live our lives in
the market place of life.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I was especially
moved by his encouraging words to our seminarians to allow the spirit to enter
their hearts as they learn to know and love Jesus more deeply each day.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;At this Mass, music was provided
by our seminarians from Vinzons and the novices who would later profess that
day also participated.&amp;nbsp; Their various
talents reminded me of the words of Sacred Scripture from that day’s Mass,
“There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit;&amp;nbsp; there are different forms of service but the
same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of
them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given
for some benefit”. (I Cor. 12).&amp;nbsp; I could
not help think of how the Spirit was working in the hearts of all present and
especially in the members of our religious family.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;At the end of the liturgy, our
Father General, in the name of the Clerics Regular Minor, thanked
everyone.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Afterwards, he presented to
the cardinal the Seven Stations on the Passion of the Lord of Saint Francis Caracciolo,
a medallion of the 450&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; centenary of his birth and a relic of the
saint as well.&amp;nbsp; Gifts were also presented
to Father Arman Tangi, who helped us with the liturgical design,&amp;nbsp; Mr Antonio Montinola who donated the
land,&amp;nbsp; Mr. Rey Kalaw, our structural
engineer and to a “94 year old angel”,&amp;nbsp;
Mrs Nellie Lopez who&amp;nbsp; Father Ted
Kalaw met by chance after celebrating Mass at the Carmelite Cloister in Lipa
City.&amp;nbsp; She approached Father Ted asking
who he was.&amp;nbsp; He spoke about the Adorno
Fathers and she asked “why don’t you establish a place in Lipa”?&amp;nbsp; Father Ted answered, “we have no land”.&amp;nbsp; She immediately contacted Mr. Antonio
Montinola who the next day offered us the land for the Adorno Fathers.&amp;nbsp; Some people asked, what is the catch…is this
too good to be true?&amp;nbsp; The catch is that
God wanted us there at Tierra Maria in Lipa to begin His work. . Nellie’s
presence for us and Mr. Montinola’s generosity was a sign of God’s
providence.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Just by chance, we learned
that Nellie Lopez’s birthday is June 4&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; and she now considers Saint
Francis Caracciolo as one of her special patrons!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;After Mass, a catered lunch was
served to all who participated.&amp;nbsp; Much joy
and fellowship took place and we shared stories and conversation with one
another.&amp;nbsp; As the scriptures read, how
good it is when brothers live in unity.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;
On a personal note, I was deeply moved by the entire event.&amp;nbsp; God is continually blessing our Order and
also our presence in the Philippines.&amp;nbsp; In
the words of Pope Francis to consecrated men and women , “Religious life ought
to promote growth in the Church by way of attraction. The Church must be
attractive. Wake up the world! Be witnesses of a different way of doing things,
of acting, of living! It is possible to live differently in this world,” May
our new seminary be a seed bed for future Adorno Fathers and Brothers to
manifest the presence of Christ according to our charism.&amp;nbsp; We pray that we will always flourish for the
Greater Glory of the Risen Christ!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

grand séminaire des pères Caracciolini (maison Saint&amp;nbsp; Joseph) de Goma-Keshero, une messe d’action
de grâce était organisée à son honneur le lendemain de l’ordination en date du
20 mars 2014 au sanctuaire eucharistique du séminaire. C’était aux environs de
14 heures que la messe avait débuté, présidé par le nouvel ordonné prêtre, à
son coté le nouveau diacre, entourés d’une dizaine de prêtres dont ceux de la famille
religieuse des Clercs Réguliers Mineurs( Pères Caracciolini), des Pallottins,
des Xavériens, des diocésains de Goma et de Bukavu, ainsi que des religieux et
religieuses de différentes familles religieuses sans oublier un grand nombre de
fidèles. La dite messe était animée par les séminaristes de la maison Saint
Joseph avec quelques membres de différents mouvements d’action catholique
œuvrant au sanctuaire notamment les Anges du Ciel, la Croisade Eucharistie, les
Enfants de Marie et les «&amp;nbsp;Watoto wa Caracciolo&amp;nbsp;».&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

liturgie de la parole de Dieu était composée d’une lecture (1Rois 3, 4-15),
d’un Psaume (Ps 109) et de l’évangile (Jean 21, 15-19). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

était ténue par le Révérend Père Aimable, supérieur de la maison Saint Joseph
de Goma. La première lecture tirée du premier livre des Rois 3, 4-15 &lt;b&gt;était une exhortation à la sagesse à
l’exemple du roi Salomon&lt;/b&gt;. Le psaume méditatif 109, &lt;b&gt;exaltait le sacerdoce du Messie&lt;/b&gt;. Dans l’évangile de Jésus Christ
selon saint Jean 21, 15-19&amp;nbsp;;&amp;nbsp; &lt;b&gt;Jésus confie à Simon-Pierre le ministère de
paitre avec soin son troupeau&lt;/b&gt;. Pendant l’homélie, le père Aimable avait
invité les nouveaux ministres de Dieu, à la persévérance dans la prière,
l’écoute de la parole de Dieu; en prenant Jésus Christ pour modèle du bon pasteur,
en vue de bien conduire les fidèles à la sainteté&amp;nbsp;; surtout que:&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;«&amp;nbsp;le monde d’aujourd’hui a plus besoin
des témoins qui vivent la Parole de Dieu que des prédicateurs&amp;nbsp;»&lt;/b&gt;
disait-il dans son homélie. Après l’homélie, la messe avait continué
d’ordinaire avec la liturgie de l’Eucharistie. Avant la bénédiction finale, un
mot de remerciement était adressé, par le Révérend Père Emmanuel et le diacre
Faustin, au Bon Dieu, qui est source de toute vocation et qui les appelé à son
humble service à travers les frères et sœurs. A la famille religieuse des
Clercs Réguliers Mineurs(Pères Caracciolini), d’une manière particulière au
Révérendissime Père Général Raphael MANDOLESI qui avait demandé de prier pour
lui au cours de cette messe de prémisse, à tous les formateurs qui les ont aidé
pendant la formation, aux parents et à toutes leurs connaissances. Mais aussi
les nouveaux ordonnés avaient demandé l’aide de la prière de la part de tout un
chacun pour bien exercer leur ministère. La messe avait pris fin par la bénédiction
des mains du Révérend père Emmanuel vers 16 heures. Apres la messe un verre
d’honneur et un accueil chaleureux étaient réservés aux invités dans les
açaintes du grand séminaire des Pères Caracciolini. La fête avait débuté aux
environs de 16 heures, au cours de laquelle différentes manifestations de joie
dont des danses traditionnelles, congolaises, des chants,…étaient exécutés par
les séminaristes et les membres de différents mouvements d’actions catholiques.
La fête avait pris fin vers 17 heures par la prière et la bénédiction finale du
Père Emmanuel BYERAGI, avec un grand sentiment de joie et de satisfaction des
invités.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

messe de prémisse du Révérend père Emmanuel BYERAGI pour nous séminaristes a
marqué notre cheminement vocationnel au sein de l’ordre des Clercs Réguliers
Mineurs (Pères Caracciolini). Cet événement nous a été utile, surtout nous a
beaucoup encouragé, nous a été une invitation pleine de confiance de Jésus
lui-meme qui disait à chacun de nous par son nom:&amp;nbsp;«&amp;nbsp;lèves-toi mon fils
et marche, je suis avec toi, aie confiance&amp;nbsp;». C’était pour nous un moment
favorable de murir chacun sa libre décision de se donner au service de Dieu au
sein de l’ordre des Clercs Réguliers Mineurs, un temps de comprendre que la
vocation à la vie religieuse n’est pas une mérite personnelle mais un don
gratuit et miséricordieux de Dieu avec la collaboration de l’équipe formatrice
à cette œuvre divine et auquel nous, candidats en formation sommes appelés à
participer en toute liberté.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

nous avons bien compris que les années de formation que nous devons parcourir
nous sont très utiles, puisque c’est pour nous un bon moment d’être à l’école
de Jésus Christ que nous voulons imiter; de murir notre choix vocationnel, de
prendre au sérieux les paroles et conseils des formateurs. Cet événement dans
notre formation religieuse a beaucoup édifié et encouragé les futurs religieux
de l’ordre que nous sommes. Il a augmenté en nous la joie d’être à la suite du
Christ dans un engagement total de confiance et de liberté. Notre formation à
la vie religieuse est d’abord l’œuvre de Dieu ensuite l’aide des formateurs
pour nous aider à découvrir la volonté divine et enfin notre liberté commun
candidat. En prenant librement, joyeusement et sérieusement notre formation est
aussi un moyen que Dieu nous donne pour être à son service à l’exemple de Jésus
Christ chaste, pauvre, obéissant et humble. Nous remercions vivement les
supérieurs de l’Ordre des Clercs Réguliers Mineurs (Pères Caracciolini) pour
une telle messe de prémisse dans une maison de formation qui nous reste
inoubliable.&amp;nbsp; &lt;b&gt;«&amp;nbsp;Que Dieu nous donne par l’aide des formateurs la sagesse de
découvrir et d’accepter sa volonté dans notre cheminement quelle qu’elle
soit&amp;nbsp;». &lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;Il
19 marzo 2014, solennità di San Giuseppe sposo della Vergine Maria, la famiglia
dei Chierici Regolari Minori (Padri Caracciolini) e tutta la comunità dei
fedeli di Goma hanno celebrato l’Ordinazione sacerdotale di P. Emmanuel
BYERAGI, c.r.m., insieme ad atri due diaconi Neocatecumenali anch’essi ordinati
preti: Alberto e Roberto, del Seminario Redemptoris Mater di Buhimba (Goma);
tre seminaristi di teologia della diocesi di Goma: Bernard, Janvier e
Jean-Claude che sono stati ammessi all’Ordinazione diaconale insieme al nostro
Fratello Faustin KAMBERE MUKULUKULU, c.r.m.; sei candidati al ministero
dell’Accolitato ed altri nove a quello del Lettorato provenienti dal Teologato
Jean-Paul II della diocesi di Goma. Tutto dalle mani di sua Eccellenza
Monsignor Théophile KABOY RUBONEKA, Vescovo della diocesi di Goma, nella
parrocchia San Giuseppe della Cattedrale&amp;nbsp;
a Goma. In questo solenne giorno ricorreva anche il diciottesimo della
consacrazione episcopale dello stesso Vescovo. Per questo motivo il popolo era
accorso numeroso.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

alle ore 9 come era previsto. Alla processione, oltre ai suddetti candidati ai
ministeri, vi erano tanti sacerdoti religiosi e diocesani venuti da tutte le
parti della diocesi per l’occasione. A questo evento il nostro Superiore
Generale P. Raffaele MANDOLESI aveva delegato P. Tommaso BARBONA a
rappresentarlo. Per conferire i ministeri, in tutto il Vescovo a proceduto come
segue: Prima dell’omelia: chiamata dei candidati all’Accolitato e al Lettorato;
dopo l’omelia: conferimento del Lettorato e dell’Accolitato; chiamata dei
candidati al Diaconato e Presbiterato e conferimento di quei ministeri
incominciando dal Diaconato per finire con il Presbiterato.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

prima della benedizione finale, il Vescovo ha chiesto ai novelli sacerdoti la
loro benedizione. Bisogna notare che il nostro P. Emmanuele ha avuto l’onore di
pronunciare a voce alta e chiara ai microfoni la benedizione che lui e i suoi
compagni impartivano al Vescovo. Poi si sono rivolti verso l’assemblea per
benedirla. Dopo ciò, il Vescovo ha impartito la benedizione finale e congedato
l’assemblea. La Messa si è conclusa alle ore 12:30.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

il 20 marzo 2014, nel Santuario eucaristico del Seminario Maggiore (Maison
Saint Joseph) dei Padri Caracciolini a Goma nel quartiere di Keshero, ha avuto
luogo una Messa di azione di grazie. La cerimonia ha iniziato intorno alle ore
14, presieduta dal novello sacerdote aiutato dal neo-diacono e concelebrata da
una diecina di preti di cui quelli della famiglia caracciolina, dei Pallottini,
dei Saveriani, dei diocesani di Goma e Bukavu, dei religiosi et religiose e un
gran numero di fedeli. La Messa è stata animata dai Seminaristi della nostra
Maison Saint Joseph coadiuvati dai membri dei vari movimenti di Azione
Cattolica legati al nostro Santuario quali Anges du ciel, Croisade
eucharistique, Enfants de Marie e Watoto wa Caracciolo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

composta dalle letture seguenti: 1Re 3, 4-15; Salmo 109 e Giovanni 21, 15-19.
Padre Aimable, c.r.m., Superiore locale della Maison Saint Joseph di Goma, ha
tenuto l’omelia. Dal primo libro dei Re abbiamo una esortazione alla sapienza
sull’esempio del re Salomone. Il Salmo 109 esalta il sacerdozio del Messia, e
nel Vangelo secondo Giovanni Gesù affida a Simon Pietro il ministero di pascere
con cura il suo gregge. Durante l’omelia, P. Aimable ha invitato i nuovi
ministri di Dio alla perseveranza nella preghiera, nell’ascolto della Parola di
Dio, prendendo Gesù buon pastore come loro modello affinché siano in grado di
condurre alla santità i fedeli di Cristo giacché “il mondo di oggi ha più
bisogno di testimoni che vivono la Parola di Dio che dei predicatori”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Emmanuel e il Diacono Faustin hanno espresso la loro gratitudine al Buon Dio
sorgente di ogni vocazione e che chiama al suo servizio tramite i fratelli e le
sorelle; poi alla famiglia religiosa dei Chierici Regolari Minori, in maniera
particolare al Reverendissimo P. Generale Raffaele MANDOLESI che aveva chiesto
che si pregasse per lui durante quella prima Messa; poi a tutti i formatori che
li hanno aiutato lungo tutto il loro cammino formativo; infine ai loro parenti,
amici e conoscenti domandando, a loro volta, a tutti i presenti che pregassero
per loro per poter esercitare bene il ministero ricevuto.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

finale intorno alle ore 16 seguita da un ricevimento organizzato all’interno
del Seminario Maggiore. Durante il pranzo varie manifestazioni di gioia si sono
susseguite con danze tradizionale e moderna congolesi e canti eseguiti dai
Seminaristi e i membri dei vari movimenti di Azione cattolica. Con
soddisfazione di tutti gli invitati, intorno alle 17, la festa si è conclusa
con la preghiera di benedizione di P. Emmanuel.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

prima Messa di P. Emmanuel ha lasciato una traccia nel nostro cammino
vocazionale verso la consacrazione religiosa sacerdotale nei Chierici Regolari
Minori nello spirito di San Francesco Caracciolo nostro Fondatore. L’evento è
stato di incoraggiamento per noi accrescendo in noi la fiducia in Gesù stesso
come se dicesse a ciascuno di noi: “alzati, figlio mio, e cammina; sono con te,
abbi fiducia”; è stato una ulteriore occasione per ciascuno di noi per maturare
la libera decisione di donarsi al servizio di Dio nei Chierici Regolari Minori;
un tempo per comprendere che la vocazione alla vita religiosa non è un merito
personale ma un dono gratuito del Dio misericordioso, che, con l’aiuto dei
formatori, ci chiama al suo servizio, aspettando da noi una risposta&amp;nbsp; libera e generosa.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

della formazione sono molto utili perché sono per noi un momento per metterci
alla scuola di Gesù che vogliamo imitare; è quindi anche un tempo per
discernere la nostra chiamata prendendo sul serio le indicazioni dei nostri
formatori. La nostra formazione è anzitutto opera divina, poi umana: da una
parte i formatori ci aiutano a scoprire la volontà di Dio e dall’altra noi
candidati in quanto dovremmo aderirvi liberamente seguendo Gesù casto, povero,
obbediente ed umile.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

del nostro Ordine per aver organizzato questa celebrazione nella nostra casa di
formazione. Il Signore, con l’aiuto dei formatori, ci dia la sapienza per
scoprire e accettare la sua volontà nel nostro cammino. &lt;i&gt;Ad Majorem Resurgentis Gloriam.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Il 13 Ottobre 2012, in Villa S. Maria, si dava l’avvio “all’Anno
Caracciolino” con una solenne celebrazione presenziata dal Nunzio Apostolico
Mons. Luciano Suriani, che inaugurava le celebrazioni religiose in onore di San
Francesco Caracciolo per la ricorrenza del 450° anniversario della sua nascita
(Villa S. Maria 13 ottobre 1563-2013).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Oggi, a un anno di distanza si sono appena concluse le varie manifestazioni
in onore del Santo Fondatore dei Chierici Regolari Minori, denominato
l’Apostolo dell’Adorazione Eucaristica e il Patrono dei Cuochi d’Italia.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Per la comunità villese le celebrazioni di quest’anno si sono arricchite di
un più intenso significato spirituale e hanno assunto maggiore solennità in
quanto rientrate in una cornice più generale che ha coinvolto la Chiesa locale
in un evento riguardante tutta la Chiesa universale: l’Anno della Fede, indetto
dal Papa Emerito Benedetto XVI (Ottobre 2012) con la finalità di ravvivare la
fede di chi crede e di annunciarne la bellezza a chi non ha questo dono,
occasione questa che ha offerto e offre molteplici e interessanti motivi di
meditazione e di preghiera.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;“Educarsi e educare alla fede”: è stato questo il motivo dominante di
quest’anno caracciolino e l’obiettivo da porsi ora è quello di riuscire a dare
un contributo concreto a quel processo di nuova evangelizzazione tanto
necessario alla sopravvivenza della Chiesa Cattolica.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Il 450° anniversario della nascita di San Francesco Caracciolo, quindi,
rappresenta una data memorabile per i Caracciolini, ed anche per i villesi,
che, per l’occasione,&amp;nbsp;numerosi si sono stretti intorno al proprio Santo
concittadino, dando prova di coinvolgimento emotivo e di entusiasmo per le
iniziative proposte dalla parrocchia, affiancata dal Comitato Feste San
Francesco Caracciolo/Gruppo Spruzzo, giovani, che operano all’interno della
comunità già da qualche anno, che instancabilmente si mettono a servizio del
Paese nelle varie manifestazioni, religiose e non, organizzate nel corso
dell’anno.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Per il 5 e il 6 di ottobre è stata organizzata la tradizionale festa
religiosa con attrattive rivolte ad ogni fascia di età: musica in piazza,
percorso per le vie del paese di carri folkloristici, giochi e tanto
divertimento. Alla tradizionale festa popolare, che, nonostante il tempo
avverso, ha comunque richiamato l’attenzione e fatto riversare per le vie del
paese e nella piazza principale bambini, giovani e adulti in gran numero, hanno
fatto seguito le manifestazioni e le cerimonie religiose legate alla 35^
Rassegna dei Cuochi nei giorni 11, 12 e 13 di ottobre.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;La manifestazione si è aperta venerdì 11 con l’accoglienza all’ingresso del
paese della delegazione regionale Unione Cuochi Abruzzo-FIC e dell’Ordine dei
Cavalieri dei Maccheroni alla chitarra cui ha fatto seguito la solenne
concelebrazione per i maestri della ristorazione presieduta da Sua Eminenza
Cardinale Paolo Sardi con la partecipazione di &amp;nbsp;Mons. Domenico Scotti, Vescovo di Trivento (della
cui Diocesi fa parte Agnone, paese in cui è morto San Francesco Caracciolo e
con cui Villa S. Maria è gemellata) e di P. Raffaele Mandolesi, Preposito
Generale dei Chierici Regolari Minori con numerosi confratelli.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Durante l’Omelia il Cardinale si è soffermato sulla figura del nostro Santo,
evidenziandone il profondo carisma, la intensa spiritualità eucaristica , la
coraggiosa penitenza e l’umile servizio al prossimo. Ha manifestato
considerazione stima e apprezzamento per i cuochi e per la loro professione,
facendo notare che Gesù ha istituito l’Eucarestia durante una ristorazione
(ultima cena) e pertanto essi potrebbero essere visti come “ristoratori di
convivenza”. Una mensa, poi, che potrebbe essere paragonata al regno dei cieli,
con la conseguenza che i cuochi, attraverso il loro lavoro, possono dare un contributo
concreto a rendere la vita un po’ più piacevole, soprattutto nei momenti che
viviamo oggi. A conclusione la processione con l’urna del Santo, portata a
spalla dai cuochi, per le vie del paese e la cerimonia del dono dell’olio
votivo. La serata infine è stata allietata da un originale Musical, a cura del
GAP, sulla vita di San Francesco Caracciolo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;La giornata di sabato 12 ottobre, all’interno delle consuete manifestazioni
legate alla gastronomia e all’istituto professionale&amp;nbsp; alberghiero &amp;nbsp;presente nel paese, è stata caratterizzata
dalla cerimonia di inaugurazione della nuova sede del Museo dedicato a San
Francesco Caracciolo, dalla presentazione del libro “Compendio della Vita e dei
Miracoli del Beato Francesco Caracciolo” (scritto dal Chierico Minore Padre Agostino
Cencelli nel 1769, in occasione della beatificazione di San Francesco
Caracciolo, e &quot;tradotto&quot; in italiano corrente dal prof. Antonio Di
Lello) e dalla presentazione ufficiale del “Progetto Peregrinatio Sancti”,
progetto volto a diffondere la conoscenza, a livello nazionale, della figura di
questo nostro Santo, ancora poco conosciuto in Italia.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;La chiusura dell’anno centenario, domenica 13 ottobre, è stata incentrata
tutta sulla solenne concelebrazione eucaristica presieduta da S. Ecc. Mons.
Bruno Forte, Arcivescovo della Diocesi Chieti-Vasto, e a seguire la benedizione
della Cappella del Santo appena restaurata.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Durante l’omelia, Padre Bruno si è soffermato sulla duplice accezione della
parola “tempo”, inteso come “krònos” e come “kairòs”, auspicando per la
comunità villese che il tempo intercorso in questo anno così particolare e
significativo per la Chiesa locale, sia inteso come kairòs, cioè come “anno
della gioia e della fede rinnovata sul modello di San Francesco
Caracciolo”,&amp;nbsp; Adoratore di Dio, &quot;Educato
nella Fede… Testimone di Cristo&quot; ( motto programmatico del 450°
anniversario), consacratosi totalmente al servizio di Dio e del prossimo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;A proposito dei termini “tempo&quot; e &quot;fede”, nella Lettera Enciclica
“Lumen Fidei” Papa Francesco scrive: “La trasmissione della fede… passa
attraverso l’asse del tempo, di generazione in generazione. La fede nasce da un
incontro che accade nella storia e illumina il nostro cammino nel tempo. E’
attraverso una catena ininterrotta di testimonianze, di cui la Chiesa è
soggetto di memoria, che arriva a noi il volto di Gesù... La Chiesa è una Madre
che ci insegna a parlare il linguaggio della fede…” e nella Lettera di
benedizione apostolica inviata a Padre Raffaele Mandolesi (Padre Generale dei
Chierici Regolari Minori) in ricorrenza del 450° anniversario della nascita di
San Francesco Caracciolo &amp;nbsp;lo stesso
Pontefice afferma: “L’intercessione e l’esempio del Santo siano per i Chierici Regolari
Minori, e per quanti si ispirano al suo carisma, motivo di fervente adesione a
Cristo Signore e rinnovato impegno di testimonianza evangelica&quot;.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Vogliamo riflettere su queste Sue parole e a Lui (Papa Francesco), che si
adopera ed auspica una “Chiesa accogliente e al servizio dei poveri” la
comunità villese e in particolare i nostri giovani, sull’esempio di San
Francesco Caracciolo, sappiano dare risposte positive e contributo per la nuova
evangelizzazione.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Da giovedì 17 a
lunedì 21 ottobre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;, cinque grandi giornate di festa animeranno la città di Teano, nota
ai più per le vicende legate all&#39;Unità d&#39;Italia ma intrinsecamente legata a &lt;b&gt;San Francesco Caracciolo&lt;/b&gt; (1563-1608),
figlio di Don Ferrante Caracciolo, signore di Villa Santa Maria (oggi in
provincia di Chieti - Abruzzo) e di Isabella Barattucci, nobildonna teanese che
lo educò alla fede. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;Secondo la tradizione orale, la famiglia Caracciolo di Villa, alla
quale apparteneva San Francesco, al secolo Ascanio, fondò la prima vera
&quot;scuola gastronomica&quot; grazie alla quale i ragazzi più virtuosi venivano
segnalati alle famiglie nobili di Napoli, facendo nascere così la moderna arte
culinaria.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Al ricordo e alla volontà di proseguire l&#39;opera di San Francesco
Caracciolo sono dedicati gli appuntamenti celebrativi, a partire da &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Giovedì 17&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;, giornata di
apertura in memoria di Isabella Barattucci con l&#39;inaugurazione della &lt;b&gt;Mostra sull&#39;arte del ricamo&lt;/b&gt;, un &lt;b&gt;Convegno sull&#39;espressione femminile
nell&#39;arte&lt;/b&gt; nel quale interverranno il Prof. Giulio Sodano, il Prof. Lucio
Imbriglio e la D.ssa Maria Assunta De Felice e una &lt;b&gt;cena presso l&#39;IPSSAR di Teano&lt;/b&gt; a cura dell&#39;Associazione Cuochi
Caserta e del locale Istituto Alberghiero. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Venerdì 18&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt; sarà invece la volta dell&#39;&lt;b&gt;incontro
con gli Istituti Alberghieri di Vairano Scalo e Teano&lt;/b&gt;. Scopo dell’incontro
è far scoprire ai giovani aspiranti cuochi la funzione “etico-sociale” della
professione che hanno deciso di intraprendere e per la quale si stanno formando
e, a tal fine, i Caracciolini, attraverso la loro Cooperativa Sociale “Con la
mano del cuore” stanno promuovendo il &lt;b&gt;Concorso
“Con la mano del cuore”&lt;/b&gt;, nel quale gli allievi degli Istituti Alberghieri
dovranno studiare e realizzare un menù per una mensa di ospedale / reparto
bambini. In serata poi un nuovo &quot;banchetto caracciolino&quot; allieterà i
presenti all&#39;IPSSAR di Vairano Scalo anch’esso per l’occasione coadiuvato dall’Associazione
Cuochi Caserta. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Sabato
19&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;l&#39;appuntamento
è con Nicola Caracciolo, discendente del Santo e attivo nell&#39;Associazione dei
Laici Caracciolini, che coordina i festeggiamenti in collaborazione con la Pro
Loco Teanum Sidicinum. Sarà lui infatti a introdurre al I Circolo Didattico di
Teano la lettura teatralizzata del libro &lt;b&gt;&quot;Un
Santo tra i fornelli&quot;&lt;/b&gt; di cui è autore e che è illustrato da sua
nipote, la piccola Mafalda Piegaia. Il libro si giova dell&#39;introduzione del
Padre Generale dei Chierici Regolari Minori (Caracciolini), Raffaele Mandolesi.
Al termine della lettura, i ragazzi dell’Istituto Alberghiero di Teano faranno
trovare ai piccoli ospiti dei dolci e potranno raccontare il loro mestiere di
“cuochi”. Nel pomeriggio del Sabato si svolgerà invece il &lt;b&gt;Convegno &quot;Tra terra e cielo: impegni sociali e carismi nell&#39;opera
di San Francesco Caracciolo e dei Caracciolini&quot;&lt;/b&gt; a cura
dell’Associazione &quot;Erchemperto&quot;, al quale interverranno, tra gli
altri, il Prof. Ulderico Parente, Sabina Martusciello e Maria Dolores Morelli,
docenti promotori del &lt;b&gt;progetto
Ali-ment-azione&lt;/b&gt; del Dipartimento di Architettura della Seconda Università
degli Studi di Napoli con sede ad Aversa. Con loro sarà presente lo Chef
Salvatore Genovese e &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Padre Nello Morrea, già Preposito
generale dell&#39;Ordine &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;dei Caracciolini. &lt;span style=&quot;text-transform: uppercase;&quot;&gt;è&lt;/span&gt; bene
ricordare che l&#39;Ordine si pone come missione quella di offrire servizio
&quot;agli ultimi fra gli ultimi&quot; come fece sin dai suoi primi passi a
Napoli, con l&#39;Ospedale degli Incurabili. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

sarà poi la volta della festa per l&#39;apposizione della &lt;b&gt;targa commemorativa dell&#39;evento&lt;/b&gt; in corso Vittorio Emanuele (verso Piazza
del Duomo), sulla facciata dell&#39;antico palazzo Barattucci, appartenente alla famiglia
materna di San Francesco. Nel pomeriggio, avrà luogo la &lt;b&gt;Caccia al Tesoro&lt;/b&gt; nel centro storico sui temi della cucina e dei
prodotti del territorio organizzata dai giovani di Azione Cattolica Teano, con
il coordinamento progettuale di AssoProBecu (Associazione Nazionale Professionisti
Beni Culturali) e Itinerando Servizi. I festeggiamenti si chiuderanno &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Lunedì 21&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;alle ore 10,00 con
una solenne celebrazione in Cattedrale alla quale sono invitati tutti gli

carisma di San Francesco Caracciolo, sia in grado di collaborare in maniera
creativa con l’Ordine dei Chierici Regolari Minori (Padri Caracciolini),
approfondendo costantemente le proprie radici evangeliche. Attualmente
l’Associazione è presente presso le Comunità Caraccioline di Roma, Napoli, San

Roccamontepiano il 13 giugno 1952. Muove i primi passi nel cammino vocazionale
nell’anno 1963 ed emette la professione solenne nell’Ordine dei Chierici
Regolari Minori (Padri Caracciolini) il 16 /9/1977; è ordinato sacerdote il 15
Settembre 1978. I primi anni del suo ministero&amp;nbsp;
sacerdotale li vive nella Parrocchia degli Angeli Custodi dedicandosi
soprattutto ai giovani. Nel 1982, in risposta ad un progetto dell’Ordine di
aprirsi alla missio ad gentes e approfittando dell’invito dell’amico P.Fausto
Guazzati dei Missionari d’Africa parte per il Congo (ex-Zaire) per una visita
di ricognizione che doveva poi portarlo ad una scelta che segnerà la sua vita:
essere missionario caracciolino tra i poveri.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12.0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;Una vita&amp;nbsp;
(29 anni) dedicata alla missione. Resta di lui, confratello amico
compagno di tante sante avventure, il ricordo della sua umanità compassionevole
verso i poveri, in modo speciale per quelli più deboli, soprattutto i bambini
che erano il suo amore; coraggioso nella lotta contro le ingiustizie a difesa
dei fratelli ingiustamente oppressi, torturati e imprigionati; senza peli sulla
lingua nella difesa della verità e dei fratelli; l’annuncio del Vangelo di
misericordia e di amore ha occupato il suo cuore e le sue forze, animato da una
fede profonda e dalla speranza illimitata che con l’impegno personale il mondo
in cui viveva, fatto di violenza e di ingiustizie,&amp;nbsp; potesse vedere &amp;nbsp;un giorno un’alba di pace e riconciliazione. &amp;nbsp;Per questo suo stile di vita tantissimi
fratelli e sorelle lo piangeranno e ne sentiranno la mancanza.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Regolari Minori ha festeggiato i suoi 50 anni di sacerdozio.&lt;br /&gt;
Per ringraziare nella gioia il Signore di questo dono prezioso, è stata
celebrata una Santa Messa nel cortile della Casa di San Cipriano d’Aversa, dove
P. Quintino vive, insieme a P. Franco, da molti anni.&lt;br /&gt;
La Messa è stata presieduta dal Vescovo di Aversa, Mons. Spinillo, e concelebrata
dallo stesso P. Quintino, dal confratello P. Carlo de Angelis crm, in
rappresentanza del Padre Generale dei Chierici Regolari Minori impossibilitato
a venire, e da numerosi sacerdoti della Diocesi.&lt;br /&gt;
Lo stesso P. Carlo, proprio all’inizio della celebrazione, ha letto il
messaggio del Preposito Generale dei Chierici Regolari Minori:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Carissimo P. Quintino&lt;br /&gt;
Il concomitante inizio del corso di Esercizi Spirituali Caracciolini,
programmati da tempo, non mi consente di partecipare al tuo giubileo
sacerdotale.&lt;br /&gt;
Con tutti i confratelli mi unirò a te spiritualmente, desiderando essere in
comunione con la tua comunità religiosa ed ecclesiale per vivere unito a te
questo momento di festa e di ringraziamento.&lt;br /&gt;
Rendiamo grazie al Signore per la fedeltà dell’amore con cui da sempre
accompagna la tua vita e il tuo ministero sacerdotale.&lt;br /&gt;
In questo momento non possiamo dimenticare l’amore e la dedizione con cui hai
servito l’Ordine, là dove sei stato inviato. Certamente lo spazio di tempo
vissuto tra Napoli e San Cipriano è quello più rimarcante e il servizio svolto
all’interno del Movimento dello Spirito à quello che ha occupato maggiormente
il tuo ministero. Quanti fratelli e sorelle hanno goduto della tua direzione
spirituale, dell’annuncio della Parola e dei Sacramenti di salvezza!&lt;br /&gt;
Di tutto questo rendiamo grazie al Signore che opera sempre meraviglie
nell’uomo che accoglie la sua chiamata e lo segue nella disponibilità a farsi
strumento del Suo amore.&lt;br /&gt;
Il Signore sia sempre con te e al tuo fianco, accompagnandoti ogni giorno sui
sentieri della sua grazia e donando efficacia salvifica al tuo impegno di vita
come religioso e come sacerdote.&lt;br /&gt;
Invoco su di te, sui confratelli ed amici che ti circondano la benedizione del
nostro Padre San Francesco Caracciolo, mentre ti rinnovo l’augurio che si fa
preghiera, di una serena vita nella comunione fraterna e nell’intimità con Gesù
eterno sacerdote.&lt;br /&gt;
Ad multos annos!&lt;br /&gt;
con affetto fraterno&lt;br /&gt;
P. Raffaele Mandolesi&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Introducendo l’omelia del Vescovo, Padre Quintino ha
ripercorso con la memoria i suoi cinquant’anni di vita sacerdotale, offrendo ai
presenti una testimonianza intensa e coinvolgente.&lt;br /&gt;
Il Vescovo si è particolarmente soffermato sullo speciale servizio che offrono
alla Chiesa coloro che, come P. Quintino, sono al tempo stesso religiosi e
sacerdoti, sottolineando come queste persone costituiscono un dono
preziosissimo per la Chiesa e per una comunità.&lt;br /&gt;
Prima che il Vescovo impartisse ai fedeli la benedizione, è stata letta la
lettera augurale di Papa Francesco.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
A conclusione della celebrazione, sono stati festosamente
lanciati nel cielo azzurro, dove nel frattempo le nuvole avevano disegnato
quasi appositamente una grande croce, tanti palloncini bianchi e gialli.&lt;br /&gt;
Padre Quintino è stato circondato dall’affetto dei suoi parenti e delle
tantissime persone che hanno il privilegio e la gioia di essergli amici e che
non hanno mancato di esprimerlo con le parole, con i canti, con l’impegno
profuso per l’organizzazione della giornata, con la propria presenza.&lt;br /&gt;
Come si dice abitualmente a Roma … dopo la mistica si passa alla mastica e così
in tanti si sono uniti a P. Quintino per una ricca cena conclusasi a mezzanotte
con il taglio di una splendida torta! &lt;br /&gt;
Auguri, caro Padre Quintino!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I Confratelli NZANZU Josaphat e BYERAGI Emmanuel, hanno emesso ieri, 13 gen. 2013, la Professione Solenne, nella Cappella del nostro Seminario di Goma e nelle mani del Padre Jacques Nzitonda, secretario generale dell&#39;Ordine e delegato del Padre Generale.&lt;br /&gt;
Nonostante che la la guerra non sia ancora finita e infatti la tregua tra i belligeranti non è ancora bilaterale, la gente è venuta numerosa e allegra alla nostra festa, sia&amp;nbsp;alla festa liturgica che alla mangereccia. Si vede molto bene che la gente ha voglia di dimenticare le violenze, i morti e ha volontà di voltar pagina, per andare verso una pace definitiva che ci lasci vivere impegnati a costruire un avvenire migliore. I nostri 40 seminaristi di Goma, si sono impegnati seriamente e con grande entusiasmo e ci hanno fatto vedere di che cosa sono capaci. Bravi nei canti, nell&#39;organizzazione, nel servizio.&lt;br /&gt;

Natale è trascorso calmo e pacifico&lt;br /&gt;
non abbiamo, per fortuna nostra, nè visto nèsentito nessun fuoco di artificio.&lt;br /&gt;
La Messa di mezzanotte l&#39;abbiamo celebrata, per prudenza, alle sei di sera, cioè al calar del sole. Voi sapete che quì a Goma il sole cala per tutto l&#39;anno alle sei del pomeriggio e si fa giorno alle sei del mattino. Per cui anche se erano le sei, si era già a notte fonda quando è nato il BAMBINELLO, al canto del GLORIA, con tutti i nostri bambini e bambinelli che cantavano a squarciagola, saltavano sull&#39;altare per vedere da vicino il Bambinello, avvolto di luci colorate e scintillanti. Una meravigliaa i loro occhi, abituati a vedere solo le luci del fuoco nel camino.&lt;br /&gt;
Ora noi contenti per avuto un pò di pace per Natale, ringraziamo pieni di riconoscenza Gesù, Principe della Pace, che ce l&#39;ha concessa, e continuiamo a pregare e a sperare che ce la conservi il più a lungo possibile.&lt;br /&gt;
Devo far notare che gli abitanti di Goma, tutti sono convinti che la guerra non tornerà più a Goma, forse perché non la vogliono assolutamente, perché vogliono credere che ritornare ancora sotto i bambardamenti è stupido e bestiale e inumano: quindi impossibile. Speriamo che il sentire di tutti gli abitanti di Goma sia anche quello di quelli che hanno il potere di scegliere la pace per se e per tutti.&lt;br /&gt;
Visto che il Natale è passato bene, ci auguriamo e vi auguriamo anche un fine anno ottimo e l&#39;anno nuovo meraviglioso.&lt;br /&gt;
P. Paolo Di Nardo&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Con l’anno della fede coincide
nel 2013 la celebrazione dell’anniversario dei 450 anni della nascita del
nostro Fondatore San Francesco Caracciolo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraph&quot; style=&quot;margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;Per tale coincidenza il motto che ci guiderà nel corso dell’anno
celebrativo sarà: “&lt;b&gt;SAN FRANCESCO
CARACCIOLO: EDUCATO NELLA FEDE…TESTIMONE DI CRISTO”.&lt;/b&gt; Dalle poche notizie
biografiche del periodo della fanciullezza del Santo, sappiamo dell’educazione
cristiana ricevuta in famiglia, in modo particolare dalla mamma. E certamente
tutto il bagaglio educativo ricevuto e recepito nella prima parte della vita ha
contribuito a farne un testimone di Cristo nella seconda parte della sua vita. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.padricaracciolini.org/images/bangalore%20seminary.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;260&quot; src=&quot;http://www.padricaracciolini.org/images/bangalore%20seminary.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
La città di Bangalore&amp;nbsp; è ben conosciuta per la presenza di numerose
case e&amp;nbsp; istituzioni religiose.Anche noi
abbiamo avuto la possibilità di aprire &amp;nbsp;una comunità in questa città nel 2003 - grazie
all&#39;allora Preposito Generale P. Nello Morrea, ai suoi consiglieri, a P.
Giampaolo Gasparini &amp;nbsp;e a tantissimi amici
e benefattori - cominciando con l&#39;acquisto di &amp;nbsp;un appezzamento di terreno. &amp;nbsp;Nel 2006 fu iniziato &amp;nbsp;l&#39;«Adorno Bhavan» con P. Jaison Thadavanal come
rettore e nove seminaristi in una struttura vecchia, già esistente su questo
terreno. Vista la precarietà della di questa vecchia struttura e la sua incapacità
di accogliere tutti i nostri seminaristi, la Consulta&amp;nbsp; decise di costruire un nuovo seminario. Nel
mese di ottobre 2012, abbiamo avuto la possibilità di avere questa nuova
struttura ben arredata e pronta per l’uso.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
Il nuovo
seminario è una bellissima struttura consistente in tre piani con al centro un
cortile interno. All’ingresso, sopra il portone, si vede l’immagine di Cristo
Risorto con le braccia allargate: è Cristo che ci accoglie in questa casa! Ai
due lati del portone ci sono due vetrate raffiguranti San Michele Arcangelo e
San Giuseppe, protettori dell&#39;Ordine. Appena dopo l&#39;entrata, si vede una
bellissima statua del primo ideatore del nostro Istituto, P. Agostino Adorno,
molto giovane. Egli tiene in una mano il crocifisso &amp;nbsp;e nell’altra le Costituzioni dei Chierici Regolari
Minori. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
Nel piano terra,
a destra troviamo la cappella, il cui altare &amp;nbsp;è visibile &amp;nbsp;anche dall&#39;esterno grazie ad un ampio finestrone.
Sullo sfondo &amp;nbsp;dell’altare sono collocati al
centro il Cristo Crocifisso - Risorto, e ai lati, simmetricamente, il tabernacolo
e la Bibbia e le statue della Madonna e di San Francesco Caracciolo. La
cappella è abbastanza grande da poter accogliere fino a 100 persone sedute. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
Sempre a pian terreno
troviamo la camera da ricevere, l’ufficio del rettore, la sala degli ospiti, il
refettorio e la cucina. Al primo e all’ultimo piano ci sono le stanze dei
sacerdoti e dei seminaristi. Al primo &amp;nbsp;piano sono collocate &amp;nbsp;anche un&#39;ampia biblioteca, usata anche per
riunioni della comunità, e la sala del computer. Sul terrazzo, accanto ai
pannelli solari, c&#39;è una piccola tettoia per lavare, stirare e per stendere i
panni.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
Attorno
all&#39;edificio i nostri seminaristi hanno approntato e curano&amp;nbsp; un ampio giardino con al centro l&#39;immagine
dell&#39;Immacolata, alcuni impianti sportivi e numerosi alberi da frutta. Di
grande utilità anche la cisterna per raccogliere l&#39;acqua piovana e quella per
convogliare in gas da cucina le esalazioni dei rifiuti organici. &amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
Il 9 ottobre
2012, &amp;nbsp;il Rev. Dr. Bernard Mores,
Arcivescovo di Bangalore, insieme a P. Raffaele Mandolesi, nostro Padre
Generale, ha inaugurato questo nuovo seminario. All&#39;evento erano presenti,
oltre ai Chierici Minori, anche più di 300 amici che abitano vicino al nostro
seminario, tra cui oltre 20 comunità religiose. Per la S. Messa della
benedizione ci sono stati 30 concelebranti. Mons. Bernard Mores ha iniziato la
sua omelia facendo riferimento proprio a questa presenza viva dei religiosi in Bangalore:
&amp;nbsp;“I religiosi nella mia diocesi - diceva l&#39;Arcivescovo
- sono come i fiori di un giardino. Come ogni fiore, per quanto piccolo, è
importante per quel giardino, così sono i religiosi per la Chiesa e per la
società. Ogni comunità religiosa ha il &amp;nbsp;dovere di abbellire la Chiesa ed il mondo offrendo
una viva testimonianza di Cristo e del suo amore attraverso la fedeltà al
proprio carisma particolare. Così ogni &quot;Adorno Father&quot; o
&quot;Chierico Minore&quot; deve esercitarsi a fare quello che il Signore indica
&amp;nbsp;attraverso lo specifico carisma
dell&#39;Istituto. Solo in questo modo tutti i seminaristi &amp;nbsp;che si formeranno &amp;nbsp;in questo seminario diventeranno &amp;nbsp;fiori belli nel grande giardino del Signore”. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;&quot;&gt;
Noi
ringraziamo tutti gli amici e i benefattori che ci hanno aiutato a realizzare
questo nuovo seminario e chiediamo ancora le loro preziose preghiere perché,
come diceva l’Arcivescovo Mons. Bernard Mores, il Signore possa far sbocciare da
questo seminario tantissimi religiosi per abbellire il Suo giardino.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

Durante i botti più ravvicinati ci riunivamo al centro del corridoio con la paura che le pollottole passassero per le finestre o le bombe non avrebbero abbattuti due muri. Senza uscire di casa, con il cancello chiuso. Finalmente verso mezzogiorno di oggi 21 novembre ci si è fatta chiara la situazione, che insomma i militari del Congo che si erano detto pronti a morire tutti stavano scappando e che la città tutta intera era nelle mani dei ribelli che si dicono amici della popolazione contro i ladri e corrotti del governo. Piano Piano gli spari si sono spenti e la calma assoluta è ritornata. Domani comincia una nuova vita. Tutta ricomincia di nuovo. Non sarà facile e certamente molti medici, maestri, tecnici, lavoratori vari dello stato e anche poliziotti e militari passeranno dalla parte dei vincitori.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;&quot;&gt;Noi speriamo di dormire dopo tre nottate insonni e domani la croce rossa avrà tanti morti da togliere dalle strade e da seppellire. Gli sfollati, duecentomila, torneranno nelle loro case? I multati congolesi scappando hanno rubato tutte lepri e le macchine trovate in circolazione e fortunati quelli a cui hanno solo sparato alle gomme senza incendiarle. Molti cercheranno i loro mezzi abbandonati li dove è finita la benzina. Io intanto vi ringrazio per le vostre preghiere e mi addormento per esser pronto domani con un nuovo sole a ricominciare con più coraggio di ieri.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;6.15 “&lt;i&gt;L’Anno della fede&lt;/i&gt; …è un invito ad
un’autentica e rinnovata conversione al Signore, unico Salvatore del mondo”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;6.16&amp;nbsp; C’è necessità della testimonianza dei
credenti per il rinnovamento della Chiesa.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 27.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -27.0pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;7.17&amp;nbsp; Per questo “Caritas urget nos” (2 Cor 5, 14):
“è l’amore di Cristo che colma i nostri cuori e ci spinge a evangelizzare”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 27.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -27.0pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;7.18&amp;nbsp; Per evangelizzare “è necessario un più
convinto impegno ecclesiale a favore di una nuova evangelizzazione per
riscoprire la gioia del credere e ritrovare l’entusiasmo nel comunicare la
fede”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 27.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -27.0pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;7.19&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; “Solo credendo, quindi, la fede cresce e si
rafforza”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;8.20&amp;nbsp; Il Papa chiede la collaborazione dei “Vescovi
di tutto l’orbe” col successore di Pietro per arrivare a rendere pubblica
professione del &lt;i&gt;Credo &lt;/i&gt;in tutte le
cattedrali e chiese del mondo, e in tutte le comunità religiose e parrocchiali.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 27.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -27.0pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;9.21 Anche attraverso
la celebrazione della fede nella liturgia, in particolare nell’Eucarestia.&lt;i&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;10.22&amp;nbsp; Qui il Papa offre un “percorso” di
comprensione sul modo di agire:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 36.0pt; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;occorre unire i contenuti della fede
con l’atto di fede. S.Paolo: “Con il cuore…si crede…e con la bocca si fa la
professione di fede” (Rm 10,10). Vedi anche At 16, 14 su Lidia: il “Signore le
aprì il cuore per aderire alle parole di Paolo”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 27.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -27.0pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;10.23&amp;nbsp; “Professare con la bocca, a sua volta, indica
che la fede implica una testimonianza ed un impegno pubblici. Il cristiano non
può mai pensare che credere sia un fatto privato”. Vedi l’esempio della
Pentecoste.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 27.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -27.0pt;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;10.24&amp;nbsp; “La professione di fede è atto personale e
insieme comunitario”, cioè fatto da un individuo, ma nel seno della Chiesa.
Vedi per es. la professione di fede nel Battesimo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;10.25&amp;nbsp; La ricerca sincera della verità di persone
che non hanno la fede “è un autentico “preambolo” alla fede perché muove le
persone sulla strada che conduce al mistero di Dio”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;11.26&amp;nbsp; E’ necessario la riscoperta e lo studio del
CCC “per accedere a una conoscenza sistematica dei contenuti della fede” che è
l’attività e uno degli scopi di questo &lt;i&gt;Anno
della fede&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;12.27&amp;nbsp; Per la formazione dei cristiani, i competenti
Dicasteri della Santa Sede redigeranno una “NOTA” diretta alla Chiesa e ai
credenti, contenente indicazioni per vivere quest&lt;i&gt;’Anno della fede &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;12.28&amp;nbsp; e per far capire che “autentica scienza e
fede non sono in conflitto, perché ambedue tendono alla verità”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;&quot;&gt;12.29&amp;nbsp; In questo Anno occorre ripercorrere la storia
della nostra fede, cioè “l’intreccio di santità e di peccato”. Santità:
l’apporto di uomini e donne dato con la testimonianza della loro vita. Peccato:
“provocare in ognuno sincera e permanente opera di conversione”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

discepoli, martiri, consacrati, laici, noi.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;i&gt;Anno della fede&lt;/i&gt;: “Occasione propizia
per intensificare la testimonianza della carità. “Così anche la fede, se non è
seguita dalle opere, in se stessa è morta” (Gc 2).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

2.22) “perché nessuno diventi pigro nella fede; b) rinsaldare “il rapporto con
Cristo Signore”.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Infatti questo è un tempo propizio affinché,           con l&#39;aiuto della Parola di Dio e dei Sacramenti,          rinnoviamo il  nostro cammino di fede, sia personale          che comunitario. E&#39; un  percorso segnato dalla          preghiera e dalla condivisione, dal  silenzio e dal          digiuno, in attesa di vivere la gioia pasquale.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Quest’anno desidero proporre alcuni pensieri alla          luce di un breve testo biblico tratto dalla &lt;em&gt; Lettera agli Ebrei&lt;/em&gt;:  «Prestiamo attenzione gli          uni agli altri per stimolarci a  vicenda nella carità          e nelle opere buone» (10,24). E’ una frase  inserita          in una pericope dove lo scrittore sacro esorta a           confidare in Gesù Cristo come sommo sacerdote, che          ci ha  ottenuto il perdono e l&#39;accesso a Dio. Il          frutto  dell&#39;accoglienza di Cristo è una vita          dispiegata secondo le tre  virtù teologali: si tratta          di accostarsi al Signore «con cuore  sincero nella          pienezza della fede» (v. 22), di mantenere salda  «la          professione della nostra speranza» (v. 23)           nell&#39;attenzione costante ad esercitare insieme ai          fratelli «la  carità e le opere buone» (v. 24). Si          afferma pure che per  sostenere questa condotta          evangelica è importante partecipare  agli incontri          liturgici e di preghiera della comunità,  guardando          alla meta escatologica: la comunione piena in Dio           (v. 25). Mi soffermo sul versetto 24, che, in poche           battute, offre un insegnamento prezioso e sempre          attuale su tre  aspetti della vita cristiana:          l&#39;attenzione all&#39;altro, la  reciprocità e la santità          personale.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; &lt;strong&gt;1. &lt;em&gt;“Prestiamo attenzione”: &lt;/em&gt;la          responsabilità verso il fratello.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Il          primo elemento è l&#39;invito a  «fare attenzione»: il          verbo greco usato è katanoein,che  significa          osservare bene, essere attenti, guardare con           consapevolezza, accorgersi di una realtà. Lo          troviamo nel  Vangelo, quando Gesù invita i discepoli          a «osservare» gli  uccelli del cielo, che pur senza          affannarsi sono oggetto della  sollecita e premurosa          Provvidenza divina (cfr &lt;em&gt;Lc&lt;/em&gt;  12,24), e a          «rendersi conto» della trave che c’è nel proprio           occhio prima di guardare alla pagliuzza nell&#39;occhio          del  fratello (cfr &lt;em&gt;Lc&lt;/em&gt; 6,41). Lo troviamo anche          in un altro passo della stessa &lt;em&gt;Lettera agli Ebrei&lt;/em&gt;,           come invito a «prestare attenzione a Gesù» (3,1),           l&#39;apostolo e sommo sacerdote della nostra fede.          Quindi, il  verbo che apre la nostra esortazione          invita a fissare lo  sguardo sull’altro, prima di          tutto su Gesù, e ad essere attenti  gli uni verso gli          altri, a non mostrarsi estranei,  indifferenti alla          sorte dei fratelli. Spesso, invece, prevale           l’atteggiamento contrario: l’indifferenza, il           disinteresse, che nascono dall’egoismo, mascherato          da una  parvenza di rispetto per la «sfera privata».          Anche oggi risuona  con forza la voce del Signore che          chiama ognuno di noi a  prendersi cura dell&#39;altro.          Anche oggi Dio ci chiede di essere  «custodi» dei          nostri fratelli (cfr &lt;em&gt;Gen&lt;/em&gt; 4,9), di  instaurare          relazioni caratterizzate da premura reciproca, da           attenzione al bene dell&#39;altro e a tutto il suo bene.          Il  grande comandamento dell&#39;amore del prossimo esige          e sollecita  la consapevolezza di avere una          responsabilità verso chi, come  me, è creatura e          figlio di Dio: l’essere fratelli in umanità e,  in          molti casi, anche nella fede, deve portarci a vedere           nell&#39;altro un vero alter ego, amato in modo infinito          dal  Signore. Se coltiviamo questo sguardo di          fraternità, la  solidarietà, la giustizia, così come          la misericordia e la  compassione, scaturiranno          naturalmente dal nostro cuore. Il  Servo di Dio &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/paul_vi/index_it.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; Paolo VI&lt;/a&gt;  affermava che il mondo soffre oggi soprattutto di          una mancanza  di fraternità: «Il mondo è malato. Il          suo male risiede meno  nella dilapidazione delle          risorse o nel loro accaparramento da  parte di          alcuni, che nella mancanza di fraternità tra gli           uomini e tra i popoli» (Lett. enc. &lt;em&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/paul_vi/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-vi_enc_26031967_populorum_it.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt; Populorum progressio&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt; [26 marzo 1967], n. 66).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; L’attenzione all’altro comporta desiderare  per lui o          per lei il bene, sotto tutti gli aspetti: fisico,           morale e spirituale. La cultura contemporanea sembra          aver  smarrito il senso del bene e del male, mentre          occorre ribadire  con forza che il bene esiste e          vince, perché Dio è «buono e fa  il bene» (&lt;em&gt;Sal&lt;/em&gt; 119,68). Il bene è ciò che suscita, protegge e           promuove la vita, la fraternità e la comunione. La           responsabilità verso il prossimo significa allora          volere e fare  il bene dell&#39;altro, desiderando che          anch&#39;egli si apra alla  logica del bene; interessarsi          al fratello vuol dire aprire gli  occhi sulle sue          necessità. La Sacra Scrittura mette in guardia  dal          pericolo di avere il cuore indurito da una sorta di           «anestesia spirituale» che rende ciechi alle          sofferenze  altrui. L’evangelista Luca riporta due          parabole di Gesù in cui  vengono indicati due esempi          di questa situazione che può  crearsi nel cuore          dell’uomo. In quella del buon Samaritano, il           sacerdote e il levita «passano oltre», con           indifferenza, davanti all’uomo derubato e percosso          dai briganti  (cfr &lt;em&gt;Lc&lt;/em&gt; 10,30-32), e in quella          del ricco epulone,  quest’uomo sazio di beni non si          avvede della condizione del  povero Lazzaro che muore          di fame davanti alla sua porta (cfr &lt;em&gt;Lc&lt;/em&gt;  16,19). In entrambi i casi abbiamo a che fare con il          contrario  del «prestare attenzione», del guardare          con amore e  compassione. Che cosa impedisce questo          sguardo umano e  amorevole verso il fratello? Sono          spesso la ricchezza materiale  e la sazietà, ma è          anche l’anteporre a tutto i propri  interessi e le          proprie preoccupazioni. Mai dobbiamo essere  incapaci          di «avere misericordia» verso chi soffre; mai il           nostro cuore deve essere talmente assorbito dalle          nostre  cose e dai nostri problemi da risultare sordo          al grido del  povero. Invece proprio l’umiltà di          cuore e l&#39;esperienza  personale della sofferenza          possono rivelarsi fonte di risveglio  interiore alla          compassione e all&#39;empatia: «Il giusto riconosce  il          diritto dei miseri, il malvagio invece non intende           ragione» (&lt;em&gt;Pr&lt;/em&gt; 29,7). Si comprende così la          beatitudine di «coloro che sono nel pianto» (&lt;em&gt;Mt&lt;/em&gt;  5,4), cioè di quanti sono in grado di uscire da se          stessi per  commuoversi del dolore altrui. L&#39;incontro          con l&#39;altro e  l&#39;aprire il cuore al suo bisogno sono          occasione di salvezza e  di beatitudine.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Il «prestare attenzione» al fratello  comprende          altresì la premura per il suo bene spirituale. E qui           desidero richiamare un aspetto della vita cristiana           che mi pare caduto in oblio: la correzione fraterna          in vista  della salvezza eterna. Oggi, in generale,          si è assai sensibili  al discorso della cura e della          carità per il bene fisico e  materiale degli altri,          ma si tace quasi del tutto sulla  responsabilità          spirituale verso i fratelli. Non così nella  Chiesa          dei primi tempi e nelle comunità veramente mature           nella fede, in cui ci si prende a cuore non solo la          salute  corporale del fratello, ma anche quella della          sua anima per il  suo destino ultimo. Nella Sacra          Scrittura leggiamo: «Rimprovera  il saggio ed egli ti          sarà grato. Dà consigli al saggio e  diventerà ancora          più saggio; istruisci il giusto ed egli  aumenterà il          sapere» (&lt;em&gt;Pr&lt;/em&gt; 9,8s). Cristo stesso comanda di          riprendere il fratello che sta commettendo un          peccato (cfr &lt;em&gt;Mt&lt;/em&gt;  18,15). Il verbo usato per          definire la correzione fraterna -  elenchein - è il          medesimo che indica la missione profetica di           denuncia propria dei cristiani verso una generazione           che indulge al male (cfr &lt;em&gt;Ef&lt;/em&gt; 5,11). La          tradizione della  Chiesa ha annoverato tra le opere          di misericordia spirituale  quella di «ammonire i          peccatori». E’ importante recuperare  questa          dimensione della carità cristiana. Non bisogna           tacere di fronte al male. Penso qui          all’atteggiamento di quei  cristiani che, per          rispetto umano o per semplice comodità, si  adeguano          alla mentalità comune, piuttosto che mettere in           guardia i propri fratelli dai modi di pensare e di          agire che  contraddicono la verità e non seguono la          via del bene. Il  rimprovero cristiano, però, non è          mai animato da spirito di  condanna o          recrimina-zione; è mosso sempre dall’amore e dalla           misericordia e sgorga da vera sollecitudine per il          bene  del fratello. L’apostolo Paolo afferma: «Se uno          viene sorpreso  in qualche colpa, voi che avete lo          Spirito correggetelo con  spirito di dolcezza. E tu          vigila su te stesso, per non essere  tentato anche          tu» (&lt;em&gt;Gal&lt;/em&gt; 6,1). Nel nostro mondo  impregnato di          individualismo, è necessario riscoprire  l’importanza          della correzione fraterna, per camminare insieme           verso la santità. Persino «il giusto cade sette          volte» (&lt;em&gt;Pr&lt;/em&gt; 24,16), dice la Scrittura, e noi          tutti siamo deboli e manchevoli (cfr 1 &lt;em&gt;Gv&lt;/em&gt;  1,8). E’ un grande servizio quindi aiutare e          lasciarsi aiutare  a leggere con verità se stessi,          per migliorare la propria vita  e camminare più          rettamente nella via del Signore. C’è sempre  bisogno          di uno sguardo che ama e corregge, che conosce e           riconosce, che discerne e perdona (cfr &lt;em&gt;Lc&lt;/em&gt; 22,61), come ha fatto e fa Dio con ciascuno di noi.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; &lt;strong&gt;2. “&lt;em&gt;Gli uni agli altri&lt;/em&gt;”: il dono della          reciprocità.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Tale «custodia» verso gli altri contrasta  con una          mentalità che, riducendo la vita alla sola           dimensione terrena, non la considera in prospettiva           escatologica e accetta qualsiasi scelta morale in          nome della  libertà individuale. Una società come          quella attuale può  diventare sorda sia alle          sofferenze fisiche, sia alle esigenze  spirituali e          morali della vita. Non così deve essere nella           comunità cristiana! L’apostolo Paolo invita a          cercare ciò  che porta «alla pace e alla edificazione          vicendevole» (&lt;em&gt;Rm&lt;/em&gt;  14,19), giovando al          «prossimo nel bene, per edificarlo» (ibid.  15,2),          senza cercare l&#39;utile proprio «ma quello di molti,           perché giungano alla salvezza» (1 &lt;em&gt;Cor&lt;/em&gt; 10,33).           Questa reciproca correzione ed esortazione, in          spirito di  umiltà e di carità, deve essere parte          della vita della comunità  cristiana.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; I discepoli del Signore, uniti a Cristo  mediante          l’Eucaristia, vivono in una comunione che li lega           gli uni agli altri come membra di un solo corpo. Ciò           significa che l&#39;altro mi appartiene, la sua vita, la          sua  salvezza riguardano la mia vita e la mia          salvezza. Tocchiamo  qui un elemento molto profondo          della comunione:la&amp;nbsp;nostra  esistenza è correlata con          quella degli altri, sia nel bene che  nel male; sia          il peccato, sia le opere di amore hanno anche una           dimensione sociale. Nella Chiesa, corpo mistico di           Cristo, si verifica tale reciprocità: la comunità          non cessa di  fare penitenza e di invocare perdono          per i peccati dei suoi  figli, ma si rallegra anche          di continuo e con giubilo per le  testimonianze di          virtù e di carità che in essa si dispiegano.  «Le          varie membra abbiano cura le une delle altre»(1 Cor           12,25), afferma San Paolo, perché siamo uno stesso          corpo. La  carità verso i fratelli, di cui è          un’espressione l&#39;elemosina -  tipica pratica          quaresimale insieme con la preghiera e il  digiuno -          si radica in questa comune appartenenza. Anche nella           preoccupazione concreta verso i più poveri ogni           cristiano può esprimere la sua partecipazione          all&#39;unico corpo  che è la Chiesa. Attenzione agli          altri nella reciprocità è  anche riconoscere il bene          che il Signore compie in essi e  ringraziare con loro          per i prodigi di grazia che il Dio buono e           onnipotente continua a operare nei suoi figli.          Quando  un cristiano scorge nell&#39;altro l&#39;azione dello          Spirito Santo,  non può che gioirne e dare gloria al          Padre celeste (cfr &lt;em&gt;Mt&lt;/em&gt; 5,16). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; &lt;strong&gt;3. “&lt;em&gt;Per stimolarci a vicenda nella carità e          nelle opere buone&lt;/em&gt;”: camminare insieme nella          santità.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Questa espressione della &lt;em&gt;Lettera agli Ebrei&lt;/em&gt;  (10,24) ci spinge a considerare la chiamata          universale alla  santità, il cammino costante nella          vita spirituale, ad aspirare  ai carismi più grandi e          a una carità sempre più alta e più  feconda (cfr 1 &lt;em&gt; Cor&lt;/em&gt; 12,31-13,13). L&#39;attenzione reciproca ha  come          scopo il mutuo spronarsi ad un amore effettivo           sempre maggiore, «come la luce dell&#39;alba, che          aumenta lo  splendore fino al meriggio» (&lt;em&gt;Pr&lt;/em&gt; 4,18), in attesa di vivere il  giorno senza tramonto          in Dio. Il tempo che ci è dato nella  nostra vita è          prezioso per scoprire e compiere le opere di  bene,          nell’amore di Dio. Così la Chiesa stessa cresce e si           sviluppa per giungere alla piena maturità di Cristo          (cfr &lt;em&gt;Ef&lt;/em&gt;  4,13). In tale prospettiva dinamica          di crescita si situa la  nostra esortazione a          stimolarci reciprocamente per giungere  alla pienezza          dell&#39;amore e delle buone opere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Purtroppo è sempre presente la tentazione  della          tiepidezza, del soffocare lo Spirito, del rifiuto di           «trafficare i talenti» che ci sono donati per il          bene  nostro e altrui (cfr &lt;em&gt;Mt&lt;/em&gt; 25,25s). Tutti          abbiamo  ricevuto ricchezze spirituali o materiali          utili per il  compimento del piano divino, per il          bene della Chiesa e per la  salvezza personale (cfr &lt;em&gt;Lc&lt;/em&gt; 12,21b; 1 &lt;em&gt;Tm&lt;/em&gt; 6,18). I  maestri          spirituali ricordano che nella vita di fede chi non           avanza retrocede. Cari fratelli e sorelle,          accogliamo  l&#39;invito sempre attuale a tendere alla          «misura alta della vita  cristiana» (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/index_it.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Giovanni          Paolo II&lt;/a&gt;, Lett. ap.&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/apost_letters/documents/hf_jp-ii_apl_20010106_novo-millennio-ineunte_it.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Novo          millennio ineunte&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;  [6 gennaio 2001], n. 31). La sapienza della Chiesa          nel  riconoscere e proclamare la beatitudine e la          santità di taluni  cristiani esemplari, ha come scopo          anche di suscitare il  desiderio di imitarne le          virtù. San Paolo esorta: «gareggiate  nello stimarvi          a vicenda» (&lt;em&gt;Rm&lt;/em&gt; 12,10).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; Di fronte ad un mondo che esige dai  cristiani una          testimonianza rinnovata di amore e di fedeltà al           Signore, tutti sentano l’urgenza di adoperarsi per           gareggiare nella carità, nel servizio e nelle opere          buone (cfr &lt;em&gt;Eb&lt;/em&gt;  6,10). Questo richiamo è          particolarmente forte nel tempo santo  di          preparazione alla Pasqua. Con l’augurio di una santa           e feconda Quaresima, vi affido all’intercessione          della Beata  Vergine Maria e di cuore imparto a tutti          la Benedizione  Apostolica.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; &lt;em&gt;Dal Vaticano, 3 novembre 2011&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BENEDICTUS PP. XVI&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
