Missionari Monfortani - Bergamo: dicembre 2008
http://monfortani.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Sabato 13 dicembre 2008. La fame morde a Balaka. Arriva sempre come un messaggio a voce bassa. Non e' mai piu' che un sussurro. La fame. In casa sono i bambini a ripeterlo come un ritornello. Ho fame! Voglio qualcosa da mangiare. Poi d'improvviso cresce a dismisura. Non e' piu' solo una famiglia, e' un villaggio intero. Ed e' il villaggio che si riversa nella cittadina di Balaka dove c'e' il deposito di grano del governo,. Sperando di poter comperare almeno un po' di mais anche se a prezzi esorbitanti.

Giovedì 8 gennaio 2009. La fatica di educare alla fede. La Chiesa che vive in America Latina, e in particolare la Chiesa che vive in Brasile, è da tempo al centro dell’interesse degli studiosi della storia più recente della Chiesa. Una parte consistente del futuro della Chiesa si gioca proprio in questo Continente. Quale è il presente e, soprattutto quale sarà il futuro della chiesa brasiliana? Lo chiediamo a Mons. Ottorino che ringraziamo per la sua cortese disponibilità. A proposito dell’attivitá...

Missionari Monfortani - Bergamo: Un desiderio santo e sincero
http://monfortani.blogspot.com/2009/03/un-desiderio-santo-e-sincero.html
Lunedì 23 marzo 2009. Un desiderio santo e sincero. Per Luigi Maria da Montfort la ricerca e l’acquisto della Sapienza, Gesù Cristo incarnato e crocifisso, follia agli occhi degli uomini, è tutto! Bisogna, allora, che anche noi cerchiamo ardentemente la perla preziosa che è la Sapienza di Dio. Con questi desideri la creatura è messa al posto del Creatore. Agisce in noi perché restiamo «fedeli a Gesù Cristo, Sapienza eterna ed incarnata, fuori del quale c’è solo smarrimento, menzogna e morte. Un desiderio...

Hope for Humanity - network for a better world
http://www.n4bw.org.uk/blog/hope-for-humanity
Any reading of the passion narrative from this week moves me from my apathy. Intially taken aback by the violence and seeming inhumanity of the Romans and the Jewish authorities of the time and suddenly I am jolted out of that easy judgement. Isnt the world like this now? Dont we all know a Pilate and a Caiphas? Are we ourselves like that too. That for me is the most remarkable thing, that God chose grim reality, our own realities. Are we broken by grief and denial like Peter? In our N4BW values we know ...

Programmes - network for a better world
http://www.n4bw.org.uk/programmes.html
Sitima , near Zomba in Malawi. We identified this rural area of Southern Malawi . There was only limited input by larger agencies and governmental funders and the mainly susbsitence farmers were struggling to make a living after two seasons of drought. At this sort of grass roots level, our modest investment of time, energy and money could have a better chance of truly helping those that need it. Volunteer House and placements. Distribution of mosquito nets and sleeping mats.
