The mixed teams began at 8.30 p.m. In the hotels hosting the Gathering participants, on Tuesday and Wednesday there were the mixed teams, as always a time of intense and profound exchange between members of the Movement.
The team members, divided by language, met at the end of the dinner to share meditations together around the tracks provided by the Movement: rereading one’s own life in the light of the Word, finding God’s traces in daily life.
It is not always easy to speak a language that is not one’s own, but everyone agreed: no matter, amidst stammering, smiles, and hands they all managed to understand each other. The miracle of the Gathering is that everything is resolved in a simple way.
Paula and Miguel from Brasilia are enthusiastic: ‘We met some wonderful couples with whom we discussed our everyday life. A moment of grace and friendship.
