感恩天主滿滿的賜福！

「事事感謝：這就是天主在基督耶穌內對你們所有的旨意。」-得前五18

在耶穌會中60年是上主賜福的特殊經歷！

我生長於義大利Velletri一個在日常工作和服務中表現出深厚信德的家庭。小時候，我先是幼童軍，然後是小小輔祭和主日學小老師，我被天主召喚要成為神父。21歲那年在進行聖依納爵八日神操的過程中，深刻地被耶穌基督吸引，我清楚感受到天主愛的召叫成為一名耶穌會傳教士。1964年我被派遣來到台灣，真是極大的祝福！

在台灣，優秀的老師教導我學習中文，引導我了解並融入在地的文化和「生活方式」。耶穌會內外的許多朋友幫助我成為了一名「為他人」並「與他人」生活的人。極大的祝福！

聖保祿講道時，里狄雅「聆聽了，主就開明了她的心」（宗十六14）。在台灣，首先在湖口，然後在新竹、竹北、高雄、台北、彰化，現今在台南，我也經歷了同樣的體驗。主開啟了許多朋友的心和理智，使他們信服了救主耶穌！在台南這五年來，藉著艾立勤神父、萬德化神父、修士們、福傳團隊的大力協助，以及堂區傳協委員的合作努力，我經歷了60多位成年人領洗進入我們的天主教大家庭。這也是一個很大的祝福！

我記得1972年在湖口，曾經與許多年輕的教友一起慶祝聖召節。今年，台南教區決定在我們耶穌聖心堂慶祝國際聖召節，年輕的教友則去參加教區主辦的另一項活動。於是，就由他們的父母來參與我們聖召節的慶典！我們觀賞了四部紀錄短片並分十組祈禱分享，最後是感恩聖祭和共融餐會。對於當時新任李若望主教和19位共祭的神父，這慶典也是一個莫大的祝福！

我們台南耶穌聖心堂，現在有了一座電梯、無障礙廁所，更新了布告欄，聖堂外牆上新作了日夜都清晰可見的十字架和天主堂招牌。我們也安裝了「電子公告板」，揭示我們所做的各種服務和慈善活動（即時公告堂區、百達我為人人協會、教區善會機構，為教友和需要幫助的人們，準備有意義的服務）。這些設備都是許多教友、朋友、恩人的愛心捐助，這也是一個極大的祝福！

在堂區服務時，特別是在靜山靈修中心時，陪伴過好些個人及團體作神操，協助他們整理自己的生活並分辨主的旨意，因而得享生命的平安與和諧，並能矢志成為促成和解的工具。如今願分享依納爵神恩，如何在自己跟隨基督的生命與堂區服務的使命中，發揮神效；它真是上主白白賞賜之愛的禮物。也願藉此簡短分享，讓更多的年輕人，能在主恩典中，知福、惜福，再造福。我們一起在基督內，更近、更慷慨的跟隨祂！這也是一個極大的祝福！

＊後註

會祖聖依納爵，在公元1536年11月16日，寫給以前聽告解的神父厄瑪努爾、米奧納（Manuel Miona）的信上說：「上主為我們忍受死亡痛苦，因祂的愛，請求你開始作神操吧！免得有一天，上主要責問我，為什麼明知神操是我一生，所能設想的最好的方法，幫助一個人，使他獲得靈性生命的成長，並能將這助益帶給其他更多需要的人，而不盡力的去推行它，即使你自己並不覺得特別需要它。但你將會發現它比你所想像的任何東西，都能更有效的幫助你為別人服務。」米奧納神父終於在1545年作了神操並且入了耶穌會。

Thank God for His blessings!

“Give thanks to God at every moment”! 1st Thes 5:18.

60 years in the Society of Jesus is a special experience of blessings from God!

I was born and raised up in Italy, at Velletri (Rome) in a family of deep faith shown in daily work and service.

As a young boy, first as a scout, then as an altar boy and a small catechist, I was called to be a priest. Then when I was 21 years old, while I was making the 8-days Ignatian Spiritual Exercises, it became clear, Jesus was calling me to be a missionary in the Society of Jesus and I was missioned to China, to Taiwan. A great blessings!

In Taiwan, excellent teachers taught me Chinese, guided me to understand and to enter into the culture and the “way of life” of the people around me, and many “friends” in the Society and outside, helped me to become a “man for others” and a “man with others”! A great blessings!

In Acts 16:14 Paul is preaching and a woman named Lydia, “listened and the Lord opened her heart”. In Taiwan, first in Hukou, then in Hsinchu, Chupei, Kaohsiung, Taipei, Changhua, and now in Tainan, I have experienced the same! The “Lord has opened the heart” and the mind of many friends and they have come to believe in Jesus, the Savior! In the last 5 years, in Tainan, with the great help of Frs. Louis Aldrich, Artur Wardega, the scholastics and the Evangelization Team with the collaboration of many responsible Parish Council leaders, I have experienced the coming into our Christian community of more than 60 adults. This is also a great blessing!

I remember in Hukou, we celebrated Vocation Day with many young Catholics in 1972. This year, the Tainan Diocese decided to celebrate Vocation Day in our Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, while young Catholics were joining another Diocesan activity! The participants were their parents! We had 4 short documentaries, 10 group sharing and prayer, and finally the Eucharist and lunch. To have the new Bishop, Msgr. John Lee and 19 priests concelebrating was also a great blessing!

Our Sacred Heart Church in Tainan, is now having an Elevator and Toilet for dis-abled persons, a new Bulletin Board, newly made Cross and Catholic Church Board (visible day and night) and an “Electronic Bulletin Board” which show different services and Charity Activities done by our Christians, by “Pai Ta Social Service” and by other Diocesan Charity Organizations. All the equipment was offered by many friends and benefactors, to do meaningful services to our Christians and to persons in need who live in the neighborhood. And this is also a great blessing!

In the parish and specially in Changhua, at the Manresa Center of Spirituality, I had many opportunities to accompany young and adults, priests and religious women, to do the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, a very special gift offered to the Church, to help people to put order in their lives, and to discern the Will of God so that their lives may enjoy great peace and harmony, and strong motivations to be instruments of reconciliation. And this is also a great blessing!

●    Note:

Saint Ignatius of Loyola, whose 500th Anniversary of Conversion we celebrate this year, once wrote a letter to his former confessor, Fr. Manuel Miona urging him, for the love of Christ who died for us, to start making the Spiritual Exercises! Ignatius was afraid that God would someday reproach him, who knowing that the Spiritual Exercises are a special and free gift given to help people to grow in his spiritual life and in the service of others, yet he did not do his best to offer this gift to people in need! Fr. Miona finally made the Spiritual Exercises and entered the Society of Jesus in the year 1545!
