Today, October 10, 2013, the day when St. Daniel Comboni passed from this earth to a new life, our new web site www.lmcomboni.org is born.
We, the Comboni Lay Missionaries, have been dreaming for many years of having a space on the internet at the international level in which to share what each one of us is doing in more than 20 countries where we are present. Today this becomes possible.
This site is born resting on three pillars:
- A website where to find the more formal information about who we are and where we are.
- A blog, from which we write to you, born with the intention of bringing freshness and up to date news to our daily life. We hope to continue to fill this space with the contributions from all the various countries and from those who will visit us. And we invite you to subscribe in order to receive the news items when they come out.
- And finally a base of formation where we wish to share the formation which we prepare in the various countries, so that we may learn from them, both the CLM, the other members of the Comboni Family as well as any person with Christian and missionary interests or to get to know other cultures.
We wish to make new friends, some here on the internet and, to all who so wish, we invite them to get to know us personally. United we can do a lot.
Today we plant the seed of a tree which together we wish to help grow. We hope that someday it may turn out to be the tree of the word where the Africans sit to converse, to reflect, to rest and to help the community grow.
We welcome you from whatever corner of the world you will visit us in our missionary home, open to all, where we hope you will feel at ease.
Cordial greetings
The Comboni Lay Missionaries
