The 24marzo - day of the assassination of Monsignor Oscar Arnulfo Romero, El Salvador, in 1980 - the Church Italian celebrates the day of prayer and digiunofacendo memory of the martyrs and missionaries who have been every year since uccisisolo chained to Christ. The ordinariness of their faith makes questitestimoni of people close to us, available models, facilmenteimitabili.
Don Gianni, National Director of Missio Foundation is a reflection of the nineteenth sultema Day: STAY IN HOPE.

Il tema della speranza è stato rivisitato spesso nell’ultimo decennio conesplicito riferimento al nostro continente europeo: lo si è fatto per segnalareche la speranza sembra lasciare i nostri paesi e le nostre città, che i giovanirischiano sempre più di consegnarsi all’“attimo fuggente” privo di futuro, che lestesse comunità cristiane si ripiegano al loro interno senza annunciare più ilfuturo di Dio, che solo può illuminare il presente.

Arruolarei martiri sotto il segno della speranza è certamente un’impresa ardita: ilmartire è per definizione colui che vede interrotta abruptly paraboladi a life, often a life full of wisdom, love and dedication. Ilmartire in each case brings with it a scandal, as proof that Diopropone fatal to him, his friends, the community that attends to the astonished suaeliminazione. If it is a mission that seems to hang the mission itself.

Ilmartire however, does not stand alone in the memory of those who moved haconosciuto or in memory of his actions and teachings: the martyr stands into Christ. Thus becomes a sign and source of hope: there istruiscetanto his death, but life that first lived in behalf delVangelo and now experiencing life in its accomplishment, ie relazionesalda and the final with Jesus, the Risen Christ.

Questosguardo - that theologians describe as "eschatological" - does not isolate the martyr, but he returns to his friends, those who knew him, to those who senteparlare. Not only is his past, but also This is his opinion sulnostro path of the Church and mission support is in trouble, regoladi life is what Christians must do or avoid. In the absence scandalodell'apparente, the martyr becomes the founder of new hope, a source of confidence, a message that transcends time and space, preziosaper Word renew the Mission.
