«Nella mia lista di “donne di coraggio” ci sono tante mie consorelle e donne che difendono la vita, che hanno un’esistenza più donata e generosa della mia. Sento vero il principio africano di ubuntu: “io sono perché noi siamo”. Questo premio non è qualcosa di personale, lo abbiamo tessuto insieme. Io sono un ponte, per riceverlo e passarlo alle altre». Lo dice con umiltà e anche con un po’ d’imbarazzo Alicia Vacas Moro (nella foto), suora missionaria comboniana che l’8 marzo 2021 ha ricevuto il “Premio internazionale Donne di Coraggio”.

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]
