PAUL Giuntella the life as a fire, a star
The memory of journalist and writer, died May 22, 2008
In life there are meetings that will indelibly mark. E 'when you are lucky enough to run into "vendors of hope, dealers sense, justice and freedom." Paul Giuntella came to Leghorn in March 2006 invited by the Social Communications of the diocese (in the photo a moment of ) and passionately explained his vocation as a Christian and a journalist. In words that are difficult to forget: "My real board - he said - are the poor of the world, my CEO is Jesus Christ and my master is the Lord our God. It is clear that if I translate this in terms fundamentalists, clerics, religious, I ruined everything: starting with my Lord. "
Flashing other then the audience with words of fire: "The press offices of real Church are the witnesses, not ten seconds for a declaration of a cardinal or a bishop. Enough with the shields to defend our identity! Christianity is seen as a geopolitical and regional reality is not universal and therefore is no longer Christianity. That's why we need more blood than whining. The unique identity temporalistic idolatrous and that we should be able to communicate is that of love. Why is it that we recognize. "
who then wanted to" meet "again in his books found in in its rhapsodic prose, rhythmic from the heart and music, the paths of spirituality in a dynamic equilibrium between the sky and perfect and sidewalk. Giuntella so careful to pass on the memory of the witnesses was himself a witness of faith "on fire". "They love the witnesses because of their gestures - he wrote in one of his last books - by their deeds and their words we hear clips from grace, the embers of the firebrand, the red flower."
Here Giuntella want to remember him because he was very close to Livorno (a month ago he had given his willingness to participate in the celebrations for the thirtieth anniversary of the death of Don Angeli). His father Vittorio Emanuele , Returning from town famous Nazi concentration camps, was a close friend of Don Roberto Angeli and the knowledge and passion for this figure of the pioneer of social Christianity had also passed to his son.
Giuntella So Paul wrote on the occasion of the new edition of the Gospel the camps in 2007: "Angels Don was one of those Tuscan priests who anticipated that the Council had names, fixed references to my house. That patrol men, each so different and yet seemed to be a flowering of new revival of Christianity, as if the Tuscany and France of those years were their favorite locations from the Lord for his avant-garde. I remember, as I get in mind: Facibeni don, don Nesi, Cardinal Dalla Costa, Don Milani, Don Bartoletti, Father Ernesto Balducci, and the Christian Social don Angels, in some ways, it was a bit 'the precursor of all.
