"Both Christmas and Easter are confessions of Jesus Christ's love."
"Christmas and Easter are also Jesus Christ's declaration of love," Csaba Böjte told Metropol . "Mary Magdalene, my little heart, tell the others that we will meet on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. Let's pick up where we left off.
It is so beautiful that the great God can even forgive Good Friday. We have to learn this too"
said the Franciscan monk.
After his visit to Transcarpathia with the children this week, Father Böjte. As he said:
"We tried to understand together: despite the fact that Jesus went through so many difficulties on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, he did not collapse. He didn't start a fight with anyone. Even after his resurrection, he didn't say: "come on, let's break down Herod's gate". But he kept his peace of mind. This is important, since these orphaned children have also been through a lot, so they must learn to control themselves. Our Lord Jesus Christ is a lamp in this, who showed us that there is indeed trouble in the world, but let's take the cross on our shoulders, help each other, and then the world will surely be a better place!"
Brother Csaba, who came at the invitation of the Transcarpathian Hungarian teachers, is considering establishing an orphanage in this area as well.
After giving his presentation, he visited several settlements, where he was greeted by a disheartening sight.
"Unfortunately, there are military cemeteries in every city, you can see the flags and flowers next to the graves from afar, and the crying widows and orphaned children when you get closer. Children often take out their favorite toys and teddy bears and place them on their father's grave. Heartbreaking. The pictures on the graves are also very difficult to face, since they are smiling young men who became soldiers out of camaraderie, or often under duress. People with faces that I could sit down to have a coffee with at any time, but I can't because they're dead"
- He told.
