Walkie Talkie Long Range In City

I was a priest with him, Jesus simply

Álvaro Tajadura - was ordained a priest in July 2010 in Burgos, Spain. She is currently studying the socio-institutional communication in Rome

D oskonale remember this meeting. That was the last pilgrimage of John Paul to Spain. On Saturday, 3 May 2003, a few miles from the center of Madrid, Cuatro Vientos aerodrome old (Four Winds), had held a meeting with young people. I arrived there with a group of friends. I was 17 years old. I went to high school, where every day I experienced, that being a Catholic is going against the current. Probably the same everywhere, but I think that recently in Spain, especially among the young, it is especially clear. Faith is unfashionable. Catholic, is seen as a weirdo or loser. To admit to belonging to the Church much it costs. That's what we experienced in Madrid, had a great impression on us. In a country where - it would seem - the Church is a group of elderly grandmothers gathered 700,000 young people, and we know that not all were there. Thanks ago that came to us, Holy Father, we were able to see and count. We realized that we are many. This in itself gave us courage.

John Paul II was an extremely weak and his hands shook, his lips involuntarily flowed saliva. It was evident that much pain. Shaky, indistinct voice he said to us: "Dear young people, if you hear the words of Christ, who calls you:" Follow me ", do not deafen them! Follow Him! I did and I give this testimony today! I was ordained a priest at the age of 26 years. It's been 56 years ...". Then the Pope looked up and asked: "So how old is the pope?". It was amazing. He began to talk to us. As soon as we got up and began loudly chanting: "You're young! You're young. " "Yes, a young 83-year old" - he replied. His words were ordinary, yet very strong. "Maybe you are afraid. You speak as Jeremiah: "Ah, Lord God, I can not say I am too young." I assure you that we lay down our lives Jesus, the sacrifice is worth it for the Gospel and for others ...". We screamed like crazy: "Vale la pena! Vale la pena! (Warto! worth it!). Then something caught fire in me. I had never thought about it, to become a priest. And suddenly ... the pope arrived ... Said ... Testified ... And the seed was sown.

R ok then I made the decision and entered the seminary. Friends were surprised that parents - surprise. Mama said, "It's all a meeting with the Pope." I also know others who have discovered a vocation to the priesthood But then, in Madrid. With some I met in the seminar. To this day I carry within me a deep conviction that it was thanks to John Paul II not only discovered a vocation to the priesthood, but I dared to answer it.

First Owner On Car Title

K hen exactly a year ago I was lucky to talk briefly with Pope Benedict XVI, I thanked him - of which laughs to this day some of my friends - for books that he wrote, because I really helping. I remember when I just finished reading "Introduction to Christianity" - theological think the first book that I read with flushed face. The Pope smiled, perhaps even a little speszył, thanked me and blessed.

D HY I mention this? Well, because last week released the latest book of the Holy Father, the second part, "Jesus of Nazareth." Formed before our very eyes - you can say - "Roman Triptych" Ratzinger. In the preface to the first part was published in 2007, he wrote with realism: "Because I do not know how long I will be the time and effort, I decided to publish ... Part I ". In Part II, with no less humility, says: "I want to ... - If I only have enough for the forces - in a small notebook to discuss the childhood of Jesus. " The latter, III to be released in the beginning of Advent this year.

M OIM think the book "Jesus of Nazareth" in their three scenes is the "work life, "the pope as a theologian. Here at the end of his life, theologian writing a book, which - as he himself admits - "a long time preparing internally." It contains the resume of his theology, the fruits of personal search for the face of God. Summarizes them in one word, actually in one name: Jesus. Just Jesus. As if to say, in him is all. Build and strengthen the vibrant relationship with Him - the sense of theology.

with e due to the time of the book and the life of Christ, which describes (from the entrance to Jerusalem to the Resurrection "), you can it treated as a Lenten reading. Maybe there's another reason to just look at her. Sometimes, talking to people, I meet with the objection that books can and Ratzinger are wise and profound, but they are very difficult. Even if it is, then maybe that is why we read the second part, "Jesus of Nazareth" in Lent, as part of penance. It is difficult at this time to look for something "easy, light and pleasant."

D zis even straight from Rome, but this time tomorrow I should be in Krakow. I come for a few days to Polish to give a Lenten retreat for youth in Auschwitz. The Salesians, who invited me, saying she'd be about 900 people. A lot. Fortunately, I'm not going alone.

His father was shot while fighting the drug industry.
