Quella luna rossa
Quella luna rossa è il titolo di uno dei CD della Scalabrini-Band. Il titolo è tratto dal racconto di alcuni giovani migranti che, rimasti per lunghe ore della notte in balia delle onde nelle acque del Mediterraneo, hanno visto brillare sopra di loro una grande luna rossa che ha indicato loro la riva. I canti di questo CD esprimono un grido di denuncia verso una società individualista e indifferente nei confronti delle tragedie di oggi e, insieme, un forte messaggio di speranza fondato sulla certezza che c’è Chi ha preso su di sé il male e l’ha trasformato in Giorno nuovo per tutti, come dice uno dei brani.

Solidarity with refugees based on equality
We can hardly imagine what a person who had to leave her homeland carries within herself. The direct encounter with people, their faces and stories call us to get involved with the others. It provokes us also to question ourselves, to grow in the responsibility, to work for a new coexistence. Not we and you but we all. Not for them, not for him/ for her but with one another – for one another.

I was a stranger
Your eyes are searching deep,
but deeper is the reality,
the road that you are walking.
Troubles are great,
but greater still is the living truth,
the presence that you are bearing.

Provocati a riscoprire la solidarietà
La Polonia, con quasi un milione e mezzo di rifugiati ucraini ufficialmente registrati (dato fornito da UNHCR a fine agosto), e forse altrettanti arrivati e rimasti per un tempo più o meno lungo senza chiedere ufficialmente protezione, è il paese che ha attualmente accolto più persone in fuga dall’Ucraina dal 24 febbraio 2022, giorno tristemente noto per l’attacco russo che ha accelerato un conflitto già presente dal 2014.
Nelle prime due settimane di agosto ci è stata data la possibilità di conoscere più da vicino questa realtà trascorrendo alcuni giorni a Varsavia, Cracovia e Lublino e incontrando rifugiati e persone direttamente coinvolte nell’ accoglienza.

I would like to be happy
What do the words “genuine freedom” and “true love” mean? What meaning does my life have? Where and how will I find the truth among so many divergent facts and feelings? These questions, which burn in the hearts of many young people, have consciously, and sometimes unconsciously, challenged me in my search for happiness.

59th anniversary of the Scalabrinian Secular Missionary Women
In that moment of prayer I spoke my yes to him, handing him over my life completely.
This secret vow became my reference point and my hope: no matter what would happen, and anything could happen, I was in the hands of God and this for ever. I entrusted myself to Him and this was my strength and my joy.

Treffpunkt Deutsch
Seit über einem Jahr wird in der Baselstrasse 25 in Solothurn (CH) jeden Freitagabend von 17 bis 19 Uhr diskutiert, geknobelt, gerechnet, gespielt, gelacht … alles auf Deutsch! Junge Leute aus der Schweiz und Deutschland, aus Afghanistan, Syrien, Eritrea und aus anderen Ländern treffen sich, um miteinander und voneinander zu lernen. Die Initiative geht zurück auf engagierte Sozialarbeiter, die im Auftrag des Kantons jugendliche Geflüchtete begleiten. Im IBZ-Scalabrini traf die Idee sofort auf offene Ohren. Mit dabei waren von Anfang an auch die Pfarrei St. Ursen mit einer Praktikantin, ein Lehrer aus der Kantonsschule, der auch seine Schülerinnen und Schüler zu kommen ermuntert hatte, Studierende der Pädagogischen Hochschule und Lehrpersonen aus dem Integrationsjahr der Gewerbeschule, die ihre Klassen informierten.
