After several attempts, we were finally able to meet with a group of 10 young people, to have a full day of vocational encounter in the presence of Father Gras. The expressions of the young women, already during its development, left proof that it is God who acts in them when we prepare the space for them to meet him. The young women finished with deep joy and grateful hearts for everything that made the experience possible. They also expressed their gratitude to the community of San Gregorio, which provided us, in addition to the fraternal welcome, the place where we could find the peace and silence necessary to pray immersed in our charism.

And, as the text we read this morning says: in your eyes I have found the most sincere I love you in history.

- Where do I put my efforts? How is my priority list? Jesus, I have to tell you that now that I've been thinking about it for a while, maybe I'm not looking for what you ask me to look for. But after this weekend, I want to reorder that list and give you the importance you deserve.

- We have all been impressed by how Peter fell to his knees when he finally recognized you as the Lamb of God. He moved us how between tears he told you: "Master, what do you want?". And you, with the simplicity that characterizes you, only answered: “follow me”.
