A Hope that is Stronger than the Recession

| | Comments (0)
The Italian daily Il Avvenire published a story by Giorgio Paolucci, "A Hope that is Stronger than the Recession," an interview with the President of Communion and Liberation, Father Julián Carrón.

Speaking of the Year of Faith called by Benedict, Father Carrón stated: 

"Today, too, a new beginning is therefore necessary to testify to how reason and freedom find their fulfillment in faith, making evident that Christianity is something that is humanly worth our while. In this sense, the Year of Faith is directed first of all to Christians, but, in the degree to which we live a 'new beginning,' it can benefit everyone, according to the method chosen by Jesus: give the grace to some so that through them it can reach everyone who is open to accepting it."

I find that the interview is beautiful and striking. Read it and see why I say so, but don't let skew your impression.
