"That after my death, may it be said of me what is written on Father Kentenich's tomb, Founder of the Schoenstatt Movement".The desire expressed by Luigi Giussani, founder of the Communion and Liberation Movement |
ROMA,mkf. Although in several countries where the Communion and Liberation Movement is not very well known, the news was not covered extensively by the media, in Italy, the native country of its founder, Luigi Giussani, who died on February 22nd, for several days the newspapers published articles about the life of this charismatic man and the legacy that he left to his community and the Church. Among which there was surprising news...The newspaper, II Foglio cited the homily of the Patriarch of Venice, Angelo Scola, who made an allusion of the extraordinary and precious gift that the life and mission of Giussani was for the Church, who desired, according to the text - that after his death it could be said of him what was written on the tomb of the founder of the Schoenstatt Movement, Father Kentenich. The newspaper "II Foglio" is led by the Jewish journalist, Giuliano Ferrara, an eminent journalist who conducts an hour long television program which airs daily from Monday to Saturday. A person who is very balanced in his opinions and very respectful of the Church. Love the Church"How beautiful that for other founders, Father is also a light and an orientation!", commented Father Alberto Eronti, in Rome, when he received the news. A little more than six months since the blessing of the Shrine Matri Ecclesiae, the Shrine of love of the church, and a few days from celebrating Father Kentenich's saint day, the testimony of Liugi Giussani - who visited Schoenstatt during Father Kentenich's centennary - awakens in so many of Father Kentenich's spiritual sons and daughters the aspiration to also express the desire of the founder of Communion: "That after my death it may be said of me what is written on the tomber of the founder of the Schoenstatt Movement: Dilexit Ecclesiam".
