Pope Francis in Kazakistan - PART 2.pptx
- 1. POPE FRANCIS in KAZAKHSTAN PART 2 - (13 - 15 SEPTEMBER 2022)
- 2. MEETING WITH BISHOPS, PRIESTS, DEACONS, CONSECRATED, SEMINARISTS AND PASTORAL AGENTS Cathedral of Our Lady of Perpetual Help (Nur-Sultan) - Thursday, September 15, 2022
- 3. I thank Monsignor Mumbiela Sierra for his kind wordsof greeting, in which he affirmed that "most of us are foreigners".
- 4. HEIRS AND PROMISE - On the one hand, each particular Church is heir to a previous history. It is always born from an initial proclamation of the Gospel, from a previous event, from the apostles and evangelizers who founded it on the living word of Jesus. On the other hand, every Church is also the community of those who have seen God's promise fulfilled in Jesus and that, as children of the resurrection, they live in the hope of its future fulfillment.
- 5. MEMORY - I think of the expansion of Christianity in Central Asia, which had already begun in the first centuries, of so many evangelizers and missionaries who dedicated their lives to spreadingthe light of the Gospel, founding communities, sanctuaries, monasteries and places of worship
- 6. Our faith was transmitted through life, through witnesses who shed the light of the Gospel in different situations to illuminate and purify them, and to spread the consoling warmth of Jesus, the joy of his saving love and the hope of his promise.
- 7. May we never tire of bearing witness to the very heart of salvation, to the novelty of Jesus, to the novelty that Jesus is! …. Faith is not a beautiful display of artifacts from the distant past or a museum, but an ever-present event, an encounter with Christ that takes place in the here and now of our lives. So we cannot pass it on simply by repeating the same old things, but by communicating the newness of the Gospel. In this way, faith remains alive and has a future.
- 8. FUTURE - the Gospel says that being “little”, poor in spirit, is a blessing, a beatitude, and even more so, the first of the beatitudes (cf. Mt 5,3).
- 9. A living community, full of hope, open to the newness of the Spirit and to the signs of the times, inspired by the evangelical example of the little seed thatit grows and bears fruit in humble and creative love.
- 10. Christian communities, and seminaries in particular, must be "schools of sincerity", not places of rigidity and formality, but training camps in truth, openness and sharing.
- 11. Openness, joy and sharing are signs of the nascent Church, and of the Church of tomorrow. Let us dream and, with God’s grace, work for a Church increasingly filled with the joy of the risen Lord, fearless and uncomplaining, rejecting rigidity, dogmatism and moralizing.
- 12. I think of Blessed Bukowiński, a priest who spent his life caring for the sick, the outcast and those in need, and paid for fidelity to the Gospel with imprisonment and hard labour.
- 13. I would recall too the blessed Greek-Catholic martyrs – Bishop Budka, Father Zaryczkyj, and Gertrude Detzel – whose beatification process has now begun.
- 14. let us commend ourselves in a particular way to the Heart of Mary Most Holy, whom you greatly venerate as Queen of Peace.
- 15. In the midst of a bitterly cold winter, the snow quickly melted to reveal a lake full of fish, which fed many famished people.
- 17. READING OF THE FINAL DECLARATION AND CONCLUSION OF THE CONGRESS "Palace of Independence" (Nur-Sultan) - Thursday, 15 September 2022
- 18. in challenging times like our own, when the problems of the pandemic have been compounded by the utter folly of war. There are altogether too many cases of hatred and division, too little dialogue and effort to understand others.
- 19. In our globalized world, this is all the more dangerous and scandalous. Our human family cannot advance if simultaneously united and divided, interconnected and torn apart by massive inequality.
- 20. Thank you, then, for these efforts to build peace and unity. Our thanks go likewise to the local authorities, who hosted us and organized this Congress with great care, and to the hospitable and courageous people of Kazakhstan, capable of embracing other cultures while at the same time preserving their own noble history and precious traditions. Kiop raqmet! Bolshoe spasibo! Thank you very much!
- 21. Since its inception in 2003, this event has taken as its model the Day of Prayer for Peace in the World, convened in 2002 in Assisi by John Paul II in order to reaffirm the positive contribution made by the religious traditions to dialogue and to harmony between peoples.
- 22. After the events of 11 September 2001, it was necessary to respond collectively to the incendiary atmosphere that terrorist violence sought to incite, and which threatened to turn religion into a grounds for conflict.
- 23. Pseudo-religious terrorism, extremism, radicalism and nationalism, dressed up in religious garb, nonetheless continue to foment fears and concerns about religion. In these days, then, it proved providential that we could come together once more, in order to reaffirm the authentic and inalienable essence of religion.
- 24. if the golden eagle displayed on that flag speaks of earthly authority and ancient empires, the blue background evokes the colour of the sky and thus transcendence.
- 25. Transcendence, for its part, must not yield to the temptation to turn into power, lest heaven fall to earth, the eternal “beyond” be chained to an earthly present, and love of neighbour become prey to partisan decisions.
- 26. how many people are even now persecuted and discriminated against on account of their faith! We have insistently appealed to governments and relevant international organizations to provide assistance to religious groups and ethnic communities whose human rights and fundamental freedoms have been violated, or subjected to violence by extremists and terrorists, also as a result of wars and military conflicts.
- 27. The Church believes that all “humanity forms but one community. This is so because all stem from the one stock that God created to people the entire earth, and because all share a common destiny, namely God.
- 28. Pope John Paul II, who visited Kazakhstan twenty-one years ago this very month, stated that “for the Church all ways lead to man” and that man is “the way for the Church” (Redemptor Hominis, 14). I would like to say that today man is also the way for all the religions.
- 29. The good of humanity should be taken into consideration ahead of strategic and economic objectives, national, energy and military interests, and in advance of crucial decisions.
- 30. the human person cannot be reduced to what he or she produces and earns; that human beings must be accepted and never discarded; that the family, a word that in the Kazakh language means “nest of soul and love”, is the natural and irreplaceable reality that must be protected and promoted, so that tomorrow’s men and women may grow and mature.
- 31. one cannot profess genuine fidelity to the Creator without showing love for his creatures
- 32. RESOLUTIONS 1 - PROMOTION OF PEACE - Beybitşilik, mir, peace! … it is appropriately called ‘the effect of righteousness’” (Gaudium et Spes, 78). We, who believe in the Creator of all, must be on the front lines in promoting the growth of peaceful coexistence. We must bear witness to peace, preach peace, implore peace
- 33. We plead with you, in the name of God and for the good of humanity: work for peace, not weapons! Only by serving the cause of peace, will you make a name for yourselves in the annals of history.
- 34. 2 - PROMOTION OF WOMEN - we have endorsed the need to defend their dignity and to improve their social status as equal members of the family and of society
- 35. 3 - PROMOTION OF THE YOUNG - Let us put into the hands of the young opportunities for education, not weapons of destruction! And let us listen to them, without being afraid to be challenged by their questions
