“Mary arose and went with haste” (Lk 1:39)

Dear Young People!

The theme of the Panama World Youth Day was, “I am the servant of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word” (Lk 1:38). After that event, we resumed our journey towards a new destination – Lisbon 2023 – with hearts afire with God’s urgent summons to arise. In 2020, we meditated on Jesus’s words: “Young man, I say to you, arise!” (Lk 7:14). Last year too, we were inspired by the figure of the Apostle Paul, to whom the Risen Lord said: “Arise! I appoint you as a witness of what you have seen” (cf. Acts 26:16). Along the route we still need to travel before arriving in Lisbon, we will have at our side the Virgin of Nazareth who, immediately after the Annunciation, “arose and went with haste” (Lk 1:39).

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

We are about to cross the threshold of the Holy Week. Once again, we look forward to an event that has changed the world and our lives. Apostle Peter expresses the importance and influence of the Passover events on our souls as follows: „Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade" (1 Pt 1:3). His followers lived in a society of moral confusion and skepticism; among those for whom life after death was a great question mark. The glad tidings of Christ's resurrection renewed the world of that time just as it renews the world of today. He turned Christians into a «living hope».
