SISP: Homily during the closing mass
Ariccia (Rome). Wednesday 29 April 2009. Feast of St. Catherine of Siena, patron saint of Europe and of Italy.
Initial greeting. As we have started the Seminar with a common prayer of thanksgiving, much more now, with the riches of the experience that we have lived, let us express together our gratitude to the Providence of God.
As we celebrate the feast of St. Catherine of Siena, let us ask from the Spirit of Christ the wisdom to commit ourselves now to put to good use, first for ourselves and then for others, what we have heard, reflected and made ours together.
