"Lent is a time of grace to the extent that we listen to Him who speaks to us. And how does He speak to us? First of all in the Word of God, which the Church offers us in the Liturgy: let us not let it fall into the void; as well as in the Scriptures, the Lord speaks to us in our brothers, especially in the faces and stories of those who need help. Listening to Christ also passes through listening to our brothers and sisters in the Church, that mutual listening which in some phases is the main objective but which nevertheless always remains indispensable in the method and style of a synodal Church". Pope Francis
Even the boys and girls of the San Benedetto Abate school have embarked on the journey towards Holy Easter! The teachers prepared activities, created workshops and told about the life of Jesus through the reading of some parables such as the good sower and the good Samaritan.
The path undertaken also saw the involvement of all the parents who thought about and proposed raising a fund for Syria and Turkey, countries devastated by the earthquake.
Along our journey we focused on important words such as prayer, dialogue, love, good and life; There were many reflections and curiosities that emerged. The children questioned themselves about the life of Jesus, expressing questions and curiosities, reflections and comparisons on their daily lives, on how they themselves deal with relationships, on what it means to love, love each other, help each other, compare notes, be friends, respect the rules, respect parents, and much more.
