“The kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the biggest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air can come and shelter in its branches” (Mt 13:31-32).
Dear brothers and sisters,
This is the word of God that came to my mind, thinking about you gathered at The Ark and The Dove. I join you in giving thanks to the blessed Trinity for the huge tree of the Charismatic Renewal, grown out the mustard seed sown where you are 50 years ago.
