On the first anniversary of the death of Patricio Rice

The following is an excerpt from an email sent by Daniel Leal.  I used Google Translate to provide the English and then I took some liberty in editing it so it sounds like what I thought it was really saying.  Any corrections are welcome.  Thanks – Lorraine

EN  HOMENAJE  AL  HERMANO Y  COMPAÑERO...
UN  ENORME  ABRAZO - COMO  LA  PATRIA  GRANDE
para  Fátima, Carlos, Amy, Blanca  y la Fraternidad  toda...     daniel
IN TRIBUTE TO A BROTHER AND PARTNER …
A BIG HUG  LIKE A LARGE COUNTRY (Bear Hug ?)
to Fatima, Charles, Amy, and the whole fraternity ...      Daniel

“Tu vida de Nazaret puede llevarse en todas partes: llévala al lugar más útil para el prójimo”.    (Carlos de Foucauld).
Your life of Nazerth can be anywhere: go to a place where you can be more useful to others.   (Charles de Foucauld)

“Es necesario pasar por el desierto y allí permanecer para recibir la gracia de Dios; es allí donde nos vaciamos, se echa de sí todo lo que no es Dios”. (Carlos de Foucauld).                                                                                                                 
 
"We must go through the desert and stay there to receive the grace of God; it is where we empty ourselves, the self-check (examen or review or shed) everything that is not God." (Charles de Foucauld).

Las Fraternidades de Suriyaco y Las Talas - situadas a pocos kilometros una de otra-unque duraron poco tiempo, tuvieron una gran importancia para la vida de los hermanitos en Argentina.   Simbolizaron tanto la búsqueda Contemplativa de Adoración y del Desierto, en medio de compromisos vividos con mucha intensidad, como el estrecho vínculo entre los hermanitos y el Obispo de La Rioja Enrique Angelelli.  (el Pelao..)
The fraternities of Suriyaco and Las Talas, located a few kilometers from each other, although they lasted a short time, were of great importance to the life of the brothers in Argentina. Their journey included both the contemplative worship of adoration of the Eucharist and desert time, along with a daily life (commitments, community outreach) lived with great intensity, such as the close link between the brothers and Bishop Enrique Angelelli of La Rioja (in photo below).  (el Pelao)


ESE    GRANO  DE  TRIGO   SEMBRADO    EN   LA  TIERRA   DE  SURIYACO,  SE  HA  CONVERTIDO  EN  EL  FRUTO     LLAMADO   PATRICIO ...  testimonio  de  vida  y  compromiso  que  nos  alienta  a  seguir  la  búsqueda  y  el Camino  de  Servicio  entre los sencillos.
The grain of wheat sown in the land of Suriyaco, has become the fruit named Patricio ... witness of life and commitment that encourages us to continue the journey and the mission of service among the poor.
