Toward World Mission Day in Bosnia and Herzegovina

“As Pope Francis highlighted in his message for Mission Sunday 2020, I would like first of all to thank the Creator for the gift of the Extraordinary Missionary Month of October 2019, which the Church around the world celebrated and which, personally, opened new horizons and deepened my missionary awareness”.

This is the testimony of Josipa Prskalo, layperson, collaborator of the magazine Katolički tjednik (Catholic weekly), and of the portal Nedjelja.ba, (Domenica.ba), presenter of the Zov misija column (Call of the missions), reported Fides News Agency.

Josipa is in frequent contact with missionaries from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, so he knows that their challenges have become more complicated with the pandemic. “I receive a particular strength, hope and faith from their steadfastness even watching the video message #WeAreStillHere – # JošSmoUvijekOvdje – he explains -. I got goosebumps and I felt a certain pride in discovering that there are people in the world who unconditionally put the needs of others before their own. ‘Idealists’ who, like Saint Mother Teresa, are a pencil in the hands of God and who clearly say: ‘we remain’.”

Praise the Lord
