BIS #1806 A CALL FOR INTEGRAL HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

AHMEDNAGAR, MARCH 19, 2010: As the time draws near to commemorate the passion, death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Church calls the faithful to practice holiness. For the common preparation of this mystery, the CRI Ahmednagar sub-unit of the Catholic Diocese of Nashik met on Tuesday March 16, 2010 at St. Thomas Church, Kedgaon, Ahmednagar (run by the Vincentian Congregation) for a recollection. Fr. John Misquitta sj, the Judicial Vicar and former president of the Nashik Unit spoke on the latest encyclical of Benedict XVI Caritas in Veritate. Highlighting the present situation of globalisation in the context of development, Fr. Misquitta reminded the 45 religious of the sub – unit about the real nature they possess. “There should be an integral human development, upholding the rights of each person and an equitable sharing of resources to promote social justice” he added.

There was a time for personal prayer in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament and to receive the sacrament of reconciliation.
