"Take Up My Life". Prayer by Fr. Andrea Santoro
Published on 15 Mar 2018
The "Wake Up Project" invites you to discover what was in the hearts of those who knew how to live and die for Christ. "Take Up My Life" is a prayer written by Fr. Andrea Santoro, an Italian priest who wished to be a witness to the Gospel in an Arabic country. He spent 5 years as a "Fidei Donum" missionary in Turkey, where he lived as "another Christ" among people who did not know Christ. He died in 2006, assassinated while he was meditating on the Word of God in his small parish church, "Saint Mary of Trabzon." This prayer, written on November 20, 1986, expresses what was in the priestly heart of Fr. Andrea: love for Christ and the desire to lay down his life for Him. At the same time, it expresses the experience of his own fragility.
Fr. Josef Toufar. Witness of the Cross
Published on 26 Apr 2018
With this clip "Wake Up Project" wants to present to you the figure of Fr. Josef Toufar. This young and generous priest was a victim of the wave of communism that struck the Czech Republic in 1949. The "Miracle of the Cross of Číhošt", was what led Fr. Josef to be kidnapped by the Communist Police force who subjected him to severe tortures. They manipulated the truth in order to wipe out the faith of the Czech people. Fr. Josef died due to the serious abuse received from the communist regime, but he left behind for the Catholic population, his example of faith and love for the truth.
