From April 5 to 13 we lived a special Holy Week, not like the others. In the midst of the Coronavirus crisis, every celebration, from Palm Sunday to Easter, was held at home, in our community chapel.
It was a very first time for everyone; we were able to live and participate in the celebration of the Paschal Mystery in an atmosphere of intimacy and special prayer. We used to celebrate this time of strong spirituality in "am-bala" with our young people, engaged in the preparation and organization of the liturgy and the feast, things that did not make it easier for us to concentrate on prayer. All this remains as a story engraved on the journey of each one; we believe that the Lord wanted to leave us a message: to think from time to time of personal moments of reflection and prayer, to think of the community, of our fraternity and of mutual love more than aiming only at our work/apostolate. The Lord has given us the opportunity to take care of the young people, not with activities, but by praying for them and for their needs.
