In a message sent to the President of the World Executive Council of CVX, Mauricio López, Holy Father Pope Francis invited everyone to unite in contemplation and action. The Holy Father stressed that “we can enter the heart of God only through the wounds of Christ,” and thanked those present “for the dedication and love towards the Church and brothers” as well as encouraging everyone to “continue to make Christ present in their respective environments, giving an apostolic meaning in all the activities that are carried out.”
As reported by ICN, For his part, addressing the 250 participants, Mauricio López stated that “the centre of our identity and the source of our vocation in the world is in the contemplation of incarnation,” which thus makes possible collaboration with Christ “in the redemption of our humanity.”
The President of the Christian Life Communities spoke about what he defined as “four tripods that can help us respond to the call to be a gift for the Church and for the world.” Lopez also insisted on the need to be witnesses of the presence of Christ in so many people who take on the values of the Kingdom from that spirituality.
