Fifty years later, Hubert, one of the leaders of the Jewish community of Sables d'Olonne, is still in shock! The sad story he tells us took place at the foot of the stairs of the building where he lived with his family. Hubert was ten. An older boy gives him a day this apostrophe in his face: "It was you who killed Jesus." Little Hubert can not believe it! "I then tell it back to my mother. I do not understand anything! I never killed anyone ... What that meant? "
Then her mother explained who Jesus is and why Catholics and Jews want to last 2,000 years." I discovered that life would not be easy! "Hubert told us all this yesterday during the meeting of Friendship Judeo-Christian West, which gathered Sunday at the synagogue of Sables d'Olonne members of this association from six neighboring counties.
great opportunity to measure the huge step taken for fifty years and more, with those whom John Paul II had said they were our "elder brothers". Benedict XVI, meanwhile, has gone further yet, since he defines as our "father in faith"!
I take this opportunity to do some pub from the AJC (Judeo-Christian Friendship), which I myself am a member for a number of years. But, should we receive or nothing to learn from our fathers in faith? We do not even twenty members in the Vendee! Vendee, this association was chaired by Dr. Bloch, a former mayor of Fontenay le Comte, until 2007. We work on reconciliation between Jews and Christians through regular time for study, reflection, lectures, etc. ... If you want to more information, please let me know!
PS: No blog before Saturday because I take this week a little time for rest and reflection. I will carry you in prayer, thanking you for your loyalty.
