The challenge a meeting


Tuesday, August 26, 2008, at 19, at the Mimosa Room B-6, will be presented to Meeting Rimini the book "I'm recording everything for eternity" . The publication, published by "Ithaca", collects together photos and testimonials, letters from various Graziano Grazzini.

Letters choices they want to "register" experiences, milestones, feelings that have marked his life, embraced and cheered Christian encounter.

The book will be presented by Gabriele Toccafondi and Denis Verdin i, Members of Parliament, along with Matteo Renzi, President of the Province of Florence. Why

three politicians were invited to talk about an adventure "in across the board "similar to Grace?

There is a risk that the meeting be simplistic and "unbalanced" on only one side of his life, so bright and full of expressions?

First it must be said that this is actually the first in a series of presentations that will touch other Italian cities, where you can further deepen the figure and work.

Moreover, in times when the shortcut of the 'anti-politics "seems to be a recurring temptation even among Catholics, a meeting like the meeting is more important than ever. Significant in this sense is what drew the President of the Italian Episcopal Conference, Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, in a recent interview with the monthly magazine "Tracks": "The disaffection with politics is not something that the Church is happy, if anything, is the opposite: the social doctrine and the educational practice of the Church have always worked to keep the faithful participate in the construction of public affairs with all their wealth, their human and Christian background. "

This is what has moved and marked Graziano, even compared to policy.

And in this connection is not coincidental that all three have been invited with him, each according to timing, manner and play different roles, perhaps a dialectical relationship, but always frank and lively, never superficial. Will they have the same approach to his testimony at the presentation of his letters?

This is the "challenge" that awaits them on 26 August.
