\u201cWe have just celebrated the first anniversary of the canonization of St. Joseph Allamano on October 20. It was a moment of celebration but also as a time of grace that reaches all of us who let his life and spirituality inspire our lives, our choices, our actions, our relationships\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJoseph Allamano had a deep love for God and for the person, near and far, for those he has before him as their spiritual guide, formator, confessor, sons and daughters to whom to transmit a charism and for those who were far from him, geographically and otherwise, those who lived in the borders where God’s love had not yet been proclaimed\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These words introduce the ninth reflection on the journey of preparation for the Centenary of the birth into heaven of Saint Giuseppe Allamano (16 February 2026).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEveryday life is the privileged moment and place, the here and now<\/em>, where God’s grace reaches us, where we meet God who continually seeks us and invites us to a communion of love, and this makes our days full of opportunities to love God and our brothers and sisters, near and far, without exception. This is the way of holiness that Allamano proposes:\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
