Henk Baars report on his presence at the CCB meeting in Lyon

I had uploaded Henk's report in Dutch which most of us don't understand so I now attach a translation in English.

European Grassroots Communities Meeting

Collectif Européen des Communautés de Base

Lyon (France) -14,15,16 october 2022

Lyon doesn't feel that far away and of course I go by train. About 12 noon from home and really arrived at the address at 9pm. Including finding the Metro and walking. We stayed in a big Don Bosco house and overlooked Lyon with a Roman amphitheatre on our doorstep. We could have done worse. Little do I know then that the return journey will be fraught with major obstacles. There is another meal waiting for us that we can heat up ourselves in a microwave oven. So it's good to get home. We are 7 delegates (France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Austria, Italy, Spain and Switzerland, but actually 8 because Belgium is of course in two,

You can read my deepl translation into English by clicking on Text by Anselmo Borges

 Now read the original in Portuguese by Fray Bento Domingos and then the translation on his article

WORLD DAY OF THE POOR AGAINST POVERTY

Fray Bento Domingos, O.P.

1. For a long time the Church was only in the news because of the ecclesiastical crimes of paedophilia. It was and still is a fundamental issue and should never be forgotten, as the French Episcopal Conference has just revealed. However, if the Catholic Church has suffered and suffers because of these facts and their consequences, we hope that the Independent Commission will continue its work and will have more and more support from all the bodies of the Catholic world.

It would, however, be a grave error for this misfortune to paralyse the movements for revision of life, for conversion and for missionary innovation. Pope Francis is the first to give the example of pursuing simultaneously

Collectif Européen des Communautés de Base Lyon (France) -14,15,16 octobre 2022

Lyon voelt niet zo ver weg en natuurlijk ga ik met de trein. Ongeveer 12.00 van huis en om 21.00 echt gearriveerd op het adres. Inclusief zoeken van de Metro en wandeling. We bivakkeren in een groot huis van Don Bosco en kijken uit over Lyon met voor de deur een Romeins amfitheater. We hadden het slechter kunnen treffen. Ik weet dan nog niet dat de terugreis met grote hindernissen zal verlopen. Er staat nog een maaltijd klaar die we zelf kunnen opwarmen in een magnetron. Goed thuiskomen dus. We zijn met 7 gedelegeerden
