A new day

For some of us it is true that we can't attend everything. In fact nobody can attend everything because it's imposible. But we, as not beeing delegates, could still attend some of the plenaries and foras'. This remainds me of the new Steward Programme Promoting Campaign that is taking place right now in Sibiu having t-shirts printed out with slogans like: "Saint Benedict was a steward, than a whole order followed the Programme", "Peter was a Steward", "Marta was a Steward, Maria was a delegate" and so on. As far as can be easily seen, the Stewards are really doing a great job. I'm just wondering what would have happened without their preciuos help. I don't want to imagine. Already some of the press complaint in their way of the organization, but without theese 105 handy and helpful stewards it would have been much worse. I just want to thank you - beloved stewards - for the great job you are doing and assure you of my support to keep up the good work.

Coming back to this new day I started speaking about, it was more than regular, because now everybody knew what is supposed to do. The presence of the President of the European Commision, Mr. Jose Manuel Durao Barosso was not so liked by all the delegates because they were checked at the enterance in order not to enter with any things that can easily hurt anybody. In fact, I've seen in the Information Desk only four collected such things like a swiss knife, a spray, and so on.

A day passed, another is in front of us, we only have to pray to the Lord to help this Assembly and to illuminate the delegates to write a common final document that can really do something in the ecumenical world.
