” “” “"Nowadays adds fr. Emile , there is no shortage of analyses. Everyone knows what should be done to live differently, not to give in to the temptation of withdrawal. Denunciations are not longer enough. As well as exhortations are not enough any more. The current context brings to the fore some vital issues: how to reawaken weakened wills that are easily prone to disheartening? How to give importance again to attitudes of hope, openness and fraternity? It is in trying to answer such questions that fr. Roger designed the European Youth Meetings over 30 years ago. From town to town, with time these meetings have built a parable of hope in the world". The day before he died, fr. Roger had begun to white his usual "Letter" who he used to send to the young every year. The letter, which was never finished, began like this: I leave you peace, I give you my peace»: what is this peace that God gives? First and foremost it is inner peace, a peace of the heart. It is the one that enables one to turn a glance of hope on to the world, even if it is often wrecked by violence and conflicts.” “” “
