Fr. Renzo Carraro, a Comboni missionary working in Manila (Philippines), has gathered in 10 booklets a selection of the best part of his articles of 20 years of collaboration with the Comboni missionary magazine World Mission. “Now – writes Fr. Renzo – I make available these booklets, which I consider not devoid of interest, to those who are interested. They are agile, not too long and ready to be enjoyed at leisure.” We publish below the index of the 10 booklets that you can find in attachment.

Fr. Renzo Carraro: Reflections for meditation and study of the Bible
Saturday, January 16, 2021
Over the last years, Father Renzo Carraro has prepared a series of reflections and resources for meditation and study of the Bible. Some booklets are made up of original little reflections that were occasioned by preparing Retreats or Formation Courses. They represent 20 years of experience. They are simple and without pretenses, but they can suggest some ideas or lessons which can be handy in the formation work. Others booklets could be called “Study Notes” on behalf of the Bible Study Groups. [See attachments]
Creativity abounds. The trees know it

I spent one of my first weekends as a volunteer in New Jersey surrounded by markers, colored pencils and posterboard and making too many runs to the neighborhood Staples (which became one of my most frequent places to visit).

Comboni-Missionare des amerikanischen Kontinents: Pastoralarbeit unter den Afro
Die Afro-Pastoral, die seit dem Kapitel von 1985 für die Mitbrüder des amerikanischen Kontinents eine Priorität ist, hat in jüngster Zeit sowohl bei der Organisation als auch bei der Modernisierung erhebliche Fortschritte erzielt. Seit einiger Zeit treffen sich die Beauftragten der Afropastoral von Brasilien, Peru, Ecuador und Kolumbien (P. Anoumou Mossi Kuami Bernardin, Brasilien; P. Laye Ayikoue Mawutodji Elysée, Peru; P. Raffaello Savoia, Kolumbien, Br. Alberto Degan, Kolumbien und Br. Abel Dimanche, Ecuador) virtuell jeden Monat, um Informationen auszutauschen, über gemeinsame Probleme zu sprechen und sich auf diesem Weg, der zum Comboni-Charisma so gut passt, gegenseitig zu ermutigen.
