Each one is invited to be a burning candle in this world, but only a few are following this invitation. Come on – be one of them …
Ash – dust – earthThe stuff of which we humans are:
not
in our dreams and illusions
but in our corporeal reality.
God says to Adam,
the man par excellence:
You are dust,
and to dust you will return.
Ash dust earth
a brittle material
crumbling transitory poor
The mirror,
which is held up to us on this day,
shows us our starting point:
the lost paradise.
The other one,
he is held up to us in each Holy Mass,
shows us our target point:
the promised paradise.
ash
reminds us of our poverty and transience
and the cross reminds us,
that especially the poor and mortal man
is called to be
Son of God, Daughter of God.
So the time of ashes, of repentance
leads us
to life to hope to joy.
Wonders of the World

It is Advent and we look at a school class somewhere in the middle of Europe. At the weekend there was a program on TV: “The Wonders of the World” and the teacher had asked the children to watch it if it were possible. Nearly all of them had followed the invitation and at school they talked intensively about the glory, immensity and wonder of what they had seen. Therefore the teacher asked the children to make a personal list of the items that impressed them most.
Only after a short time most of them had finished their list and the ranking was exratordinary:
The pyramids of Gizeh, Taj Mahal, Grand Canyon, and so on.
Sunday, September 15th, 2013 the Salvatorian Laity of Bad Wurzach celebrated their 20th anniversary. Together with my wife Martina and Josef Bader, both also Lay Salvatorians from Austria, I visited our brothers and sisters in South Germany. It was a more or less long journey by car, because the weather was not amusing. On the other hand we had enough time for good conversations.
We arrived already on Saturday and Albrecht Klein had booked rooms for us in a seminar house in Leutkirch, a town near Bad Wurzach. On Sunday the festivities started with a festive holy mass in the town church St. Verena. Auxiliary bishop Renz celebrated the mass and many known Salvatorians participated.
Fathers, brothers, sisters and lay Salvatorian celebrate together.
