Just Welcome and Shaking Hand

In this part, Love
Sunday 2, I want to share about a gesture. The gesture is a sign. My gesture
different from your gesture. Everyone has gesture that different from the
others. Now, I don’t speak about my gesture. I want to speak about the other,
one of my friends.
Don Luciano usually says
welcome to the flock that comes to St Christina Church. The old and the new,
the adult and the children. Thus, he knows all people that follow the mass.
Not only say WELCOME but
also give shake hand. Like at The East Culture (Asia) when we meet usually give
shake hand one another. It is as a say welcome. I think not also in the East
Culture, in another culture there is like this.
I remember a priest of the
Orthodox-Romania Church. When we prayed the Ecumenical Praying, last night (January 21, 2014), he
gives shake hand for all flocks. This gesture means he is saying welcome for
all. As a flock, as a guest in this praying, I have a good feeling. I felt that
this priest regard me as a guest, as a flock in his church.
What made by don Luciano and
Father Gabriel (priest at Orthodox-Romania Church) is a simple gesture. But it
gives a big hope for all that have seen and have received what did by two
public figures.
