ACI Congregation

🕊️ Happy Pentecost! 🔥
It might seem like a departure, an absence…
And yet, it is exactly the opposite:
You do not leave us orphaned.
Where our eyes no longer see Jesus walking beside us,
You come to dwell in our hearts ❤️
to remain with us forever.
When our strength fails,
You become our breath 🌬️
When doubt overwhelms us,
You are our light ✨
When fear paralyzes us,
You are our defender and our peace 🤍
Holy Spirit,
teach us to recognize Your quiet presence
in our ordinary days:
in a word that lifts us up,
in a silence that brings peace,
in a joy freely given for no apparent reason 😊
🔥 Make us witnesses filled with Your fire,
not Christians closed in on themselves,
but living and courageous disciples,
full of hope.
Even today,
come renew Your Church ⛪
come renew our communities,
come renew each of our hearts ❤️
May each one of us welcome You abundantly.
And let us bring to the world 🌍
the joy that comes from You!

Thanks for your Yes to the Lord! Remain always in His Love.

✨ From Hope to Action ✨
Our faith is not lived only through prayer 🙏
It is also lived out concretely every day through our choices, our actions, and the way we love 🌍💚
This week, we are called to:
🌱 care for our common home
🤝 stay close to the poorest
💡 embrace a lifestyle inspired by Laudato Si’
So today, I ask myself this question 👀
👉 What am I going to do to better listen to those around me?
Because there are silent cries… 💔🌎
🔥 So let’s roll up our sleeves!
We reflect — alone or together 🫶 — and then we ACT.
❌ Don’t wait for others to begin.
✅ Ask yourself: WHAT will my action be today?
