Being bridges for humanity

The Youth for a United World (Y4UW) in Fontem give their sympathy and offer their generous concrete help to the Y4UW living in very difficult circumstances in Syria

“Dear Youth for a United World of Syria,

Words cannot express how much we feel for you and you are always in our prayers, your entire nation. The day will come when this tough war will be over and the love of Jesus will once more hover over you to transform the dark corners into bright light; but until that day, we can only empathize with you and share with you the little material goods we have like the first Christian community did. Despite tribulations, the word of God gives us hope. It is the only joy we have as Christians, our only equality, that whether rich or poor, sick or healthy, in crisis or comfort, we are partakers of the big body of Christ’s family. This is the joy with which the Youth for a United World are reaching out to humanity, to build bridges of love. This is our dream, to spread Chiara Lubich’s wonderful ideal of love by being bridges for humanity so that together we become a universal brotherhood.

Our last word for you is that you see yourselves like Chiara Lubich and her companions during the 2^nd World War trying to plant the seed of goodwill amidst hardship; and never stop building bridges for humanity. Be sure of our continuous prayers, and we remain specially united in the daily Time-Out for peace.

Let’s Bridge
