Rereading the ' homily the Pope gave last Sunday in the Parish of St. Maximilian Kolbe, I jumped with joy this appeal and urgency of this communion in the community, particularly expensive task for those who have heart that deacons who leads to unity, especially in these times and in an environment where diversity is tempting to disunity.
It carried an excerpt: "Strive to grow more and more in communion with all: it is important to create opportunities for dialogue and promote mutual understanding between people from different cultures, lifestyles and social conditions different. But more to try to involve them in the Christian life, through a pastoral care to the real needs of each. Here, as in every parish, should be from the "neighbors" to come up with "far away", to bring an evangelical presence in the living environment and working conditions. Everyone must find appropriate ways in the parish of training and experience of the Community dimension which is a fundamental feature of Christian life. In this way, will be encouraged to rediscover the beauty of following Christ and to be part of his Church. Know, then, do with all communities, united to the Word of God and in celebration of the sacraments, especially the Eucharist. "
" Growing more and more in communion with all " and " experience the community aspect of life " is the commitment and the wish for this moment of time that separates us for Christmas, an event in which the divine peace is experienced as a precious gift to us from on high.
