AMERICA/ARGENTINA - Letter to the Bishops for the “Day for the Sick” in Argentina, November 8

Thursday, 5 November 2009

Buenos Aires (Agenzia Fides) – For the Day for the Sick, celebrated in Argentina this coming Sunday, November 8, the Argentinean Bishops' Conference – through the Health Pastoral Care Commission – has sent a letter out to all the parishes entitled “Proclaim Christ, Our Hope.” The theme expresses the message to be transmitted on this occasion. The text reads: “This is our message in a year in which certain things have occurred that have greatly affected our sentiments. The threat of 'dengue' and 'the A Flu' have made us realize that we can all become sick and even die without warning. But this can teach us to be responsible and defend the lives of others.” (CE) (Agenzia Fides 5/11/2009)
