At #EasterVigil in #Nicaragua, @silviojbaez tells people: "The historical moment that our country is living, tinged with tears and blood and with such an uncertain horizon, seems more full of sadness, pessimism and death than life and hope" (CNS photo/Reuters) 1/5
This is last Easter in Nicaragua for awhile for @silviojbaez. He has faced increasing death threats and #PopeFrancis asked him to come to the Vatican. At vigil: "As believers enlightened by the Risen One, we cannot fall into fatalism or let fatigue or despair overpower us." 2/5
"Let us not settle for living in a social sepulcher. Let us dream of a new country & commit ourselves to building it, enlightened by the paschal faith, supported by the power of the Lord who lives in our history." @silviojbaez #EasterVigil. Thx to @carmelitequotes translation 3/5
Announcing he was leaving April 10, @silviojbaez said: "I carry in my heart of a pastor the joy and sadness, the pain and hopes of the people of Nicaragua. Thank you all for your love!" bit.ly/2vcPAmJ @el_reportero for @CatholicNewsSvc via @Crux 4/5
