God provides...but we put in the gasoline! Will you help us buy a new car?

It has been almost two years since I arrived in Bucharest.Two intense, often tiring but deeply true years.Day by day, it becomes more and more evident to me that those who go on mission are not superheroes, that we do not save anyone, but that we can try to inhabit. To be with. SAVING TOGETHER. Dwelling together is not just being under the same roof, but so much more.Inhabiting relationships, even the most strenuous ones, even those with whom "from the outside" you would never have chosen, but who is now inscribed in your heart. Listening to those who do not feel worthy of even existing, respecting the silence and fear of trusting because loneliness has been cruel enough and letting yourself be loved might be even more painful. In all of this, the real gift is people. Particularly young people, with whom I share walks, laughter, tears, questions that are unanswered but push to aim higher and higher.Today we need a car! Yes, I know, said like that, after all these reflections of mine, it may sound trite. But you try living Bucharest without one! Here even picking someone up, finding a family who lives a little further away, bringing aid to those in need, becomes an adventure worthy of an action movie (with chases, endless queues and creative parking included). And no, hitchhiking is not really the path to salvation.That's why I'm here to ask for your help. A push, indeed: A PUSH WITH MOTOR!!!I have spent so much time on my knees, crying in the little chapel, feeling so small and called to the so great at the same time, immersed in an embrace that sometimes I cannot even comprehend. And just as many hours blessing and thanking the Lord, my heart overflowing with gratitude for every step, every encounter, every difficulty turned into a Blessing.It is precisely with this sense of gratitude that I extend my hand today to ask for your support. I and so many others have launched this fundraiser to buy a car that will enable us to continue our service more effectively and with fewer ... sore knees. Every contribution, no matter how small, is a piece of the road we can take together.Thank you to those who would like to be there, donate, spread the word.You can also donate by bank transfer or postal bulletin.IBAN: IT04 X030 6909 6061 0000 0008 036POSTAL ACCOUNT: 12148417Both payable to: Pope John XXIII Community AssociationReason to specify: 25R011 car home Bucharest
