Remember your leaders

In Lugano, a Mass was held in memory of the Venerable Aurelio Bacciarini, a Guanellian monk and bishop of the Canton of Ticino. His spiritual legacy must be preserved and explored.
The Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Lugano is the place where Bishop Aurelio Bacciarini is remembered. His tomb is there, where his holy remains await the hour of resurrection; his words, engraved in a mosaic, seem to resonate there: "For you, Crux benedicta, expecto resurrectionem vitae" (Through you, O blessed Cross, I await the resurrection of life). Therefore in Lugano on Saturday 13 September there was a concelebration in his memory and to invoke his beatification from God.
