Hello, I introduce myself. My name is Antonia, I'm 20 years old student in the second year of Biotechnology at the University of Caserta. The purpose of my talk is to explain why some of the birth of this website. I'll tell you a story ...
There was once a small, quiet town in the province of Caserta in which they lived eight girls: Antonella, Antonia, Cynthia, Filomena, Laura, Simona, Veronica and Vivian. These girls shared, since they were children, the same dream: a humanitarian mission in Africa.
often happened that between a test and the other parish where the choir sang for the Mass Sunday, came together to imagine and to hope in creating this magical experience. A good poem describes this dream:
".. with the mind free from prejudice and open heart
to the good and beautiful man knows how to express in all its latitude is
experience that somehow makes its mark.
One gets the impression there to regain the moral values \u200b\u200b
that our European culture has lost
receiving the rustle of a spirit that would restore fertile soul
also to our society abbruttita
whether to pursue rather than opens the divisions and exclusivism
you had the intelligence of the summary of the interview and universal ... "
were convinced that this trip would enrich their lives. For them the mission meant to I mention his own to talk to who you have next, meant to look into people's eyes and see, despite the religious beliefs, a brotherly love that unites and involves everyone.
Their intention was not to start from rich to give to the poor. Africa has many problems that a group of eight girls certainly can not solve. Behind the postcard images is unusual and tormented Africa hunger, poverty and suffering. It must be said, however, that Africa is full of ordinary people who nn surrenders before the misery and violence and believes in a better future.
Instead, the girls wanted to go to the poor quality of inwardly and draw on rich people, to learn that simplicity is a luxury to know that the hectic life led by the Western world only leads to loss of sight of the fundamental aspects of life and to experience the incomprehensible concept of being happy without having any of that to which you are sadly accustomed.
One day, Sister Veronica, head of the choir, heard their dream and talk about this, seeing them so excited, he decided to help them achieve it. He approached the girls and asked them: "You really like to do such an experience?". The girls screamed without a moment's hesitation IS a full emphasis. It was then that the sisters present these eight friends three sisters, responsible for foreign missions: Carmo Sister, Sister and Sister Marjetka Eleonise.
... The result is a missionary group that is called "WINGS OF HOPE" and who is doing a course of training and preparation to get ready to live in a more just and more profitable can this missionary journey.
We decided to start this blog to tell our feelings, what we think, our testimonies and get in touch with people who share this same dream ... with the hope that by throwing the seed of solidarity, it can sprout and become a sturdy tree and leafy!
