Easter Message of D. Américo Aguiar
D. Américo Aguiar, president of the World Youth Day (WYD) Foundation Lisbon 2023, left a message for all, so that everyone may prepare to welcome the Risen Christ.
The President of the WYD Lisbon 2023 Foundation begins his message by recalling the invitation we have heard so often in the Eucharist, "Blessed are you who are invited to the Lord's Supper: behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world," directed to all "men and women who recognize Christ as their Savior, the Messiah.
In this journey of preparation for Easter, the challenge is to "accompany Christ from the Last Supper to the Calvary, from the Calvary to the Sepulcher and from the Sepulcher to the Resurrection", Bishop Américo Aguiar reinforced.
Moreover, so that we may be able to offer "an encounter with the Living Christ to the youth of the whole world, He has to first resuscitate daily and permanently in my heart and in yours, so that we may then provide a testimony", he emphasized.
