‘Evangelize on the networks. Digital Missionaries’ has been the session that has aroused the most attention in the more than 1,000 young people from different Spanish cities who have come to the CEU San Pablo University to attend the 26th Congress of Catholics and Public Life.
“It is necessary to say publicly that you are Catholic and to live it consistently.” This is how his intervention began Carlos Taracenafrom Misión Hatari, who has shown his exhaustion with the word ‘influencer’. The digital evangelizer has commented that, since he began launching the mission on social networks, he realized that society has “an incredible thirst for truth”. «People need it, they open their hearts to us. The responsibility of reaching hearts is very great,” he expressed.
For its part, Carla Restoy Barrerodirector of Bosco films, has shared her conversion to Catholicism and has tried to convey what she has received, a gift. «The world has a great identity crisis. We are in the best moment in history to show the world the revelation. They have never been so thirsty and so little satiated,” he said. In this sense, he pointed out that “faith is a gift”: «For you to want that gift you have to fall in love with the beauty it gives you. The first thing that faith gives you is that identity. You have to ask for that faith to recognize yourself as you truly are: beloved daughter of God.
Another of the speakers at this meeting was Irene Alonso Hidalgocreator of ‘I am a normal mother’. He has highlighted “the enormous thirst for beauty” and “the truth” that they teach from their “networks.” «What I wrote reached people, touched hearts, that entails a responsibility and a mission. With what I do, It shows how to live when the Lord is behind», he explained. In this sense, the mother of 12 children has reflected that “it is necessary to face God to be able to help others, for this you have to train: “It is a great responsibility. Be informed and in grace.
