Two communities united by the red thread of solidarity whose ends have been firmly knotted by Monsignor Adelio Dell’Oro, bishop of Karaganda.
On one side Sartirana, governed by Don Riccardo Sanvitoon the other the city of Kazakhstan with 500 thousand inhabitants. In between there are thousands of kilometers and religious and cultural differences which, however, have been eliminated by the desire to give help to those who are most in difficulty, without any ifs or buts.
Monsignor Adelio Dell’Oro and Don Riccardo Sanvito
Hence the appeal that the prelate launched during the Holy Mass on Sunday in Sartirana to give support to “The lighthouse”a center for the disabled that is being built right in Kazakhstan and which will be able to host up to fifty “special” teenagers, helping them in their growth, training and emancipation journey, each according to their own abilities.
Currently there are only around twenty children with motor and psychological disabilities taken care of and for this reason it was decided to proceed with the construction of another larger building that could meet the needs of families, seeing their children welcomed and looked after.
A long and tiring journey awaits the community of Karaganda but which is made easier by the help that is arriving from many parts of the world where, between word of mouth and various initiatives such as the celebration in Sartirana and the information banquet in the churchyard, the the desire to give help, even a small one, is felt.
During his homily, on the solemnity of Pentecost, the bishop invited everyone, especially children, to also pray to the Holy Spirit, who cancels distances and makes everyone feel part of the same community.
“How beautiful the world is and how great God is when you have friends like Don Adelio” concluded Don Riccardo who communicated how the donations collected during the missionary day were donated precisely to this cause.
