This
website has been designed for you, young people of the Secondary
Schools and University, but it will not run without your valuable collaboration.
It
is dedicated to St. Daniel Comboni (1831-1881). A great Missionary
and Apostle of Africa. A person who stood up on the side of
the African People who were the most oppressed and ignored on earth
and had no human rights on their own. He became their voice
in front of powerful nations and also inside the Church itself.
Life
for him was not easy. He was born out of a poor family, but with the
great blessing of parents full of faith and love. As a youth he had
to face very difficult choices. His deep faith in God, the
experience or His faithful love and the certainty of His call gave
Daniel the courage to face them all. He showed intelligence and
determination but also openness in seeking and receiving advise and
guidance of trusted people in his decision-making. The result was a
great courage and strength in front the most difficult situation of
his life and mission. His
certainty that God loved him and called him to be a Priest and a
Missionary to Africa and his unshakable love for the African people
made of Daniel Comboni an audacious missionary of Christ until
death.
Let's
explore together...
As
“Youth Ministry Team”, we are pleased to let you know
that, from the background of our missionary experience, we are
available to give our input on the following themes to Secondary
Schools, to Youth groups and whoever may be interested to hear about
them.
During
our sharing of mission experiences in your school we were very happy
of your interest but, due to the lack of time, we could answer only
few questions of yours. Now we take the opportunity of answering
also the other questions you put to us in writing...
