On September 6 we will reach a historic moment: the beatification of Mária Magdolna Bódi. After the ceremony, at 2 p.m., a special bicycle raffle will take place at the venue, where eight bicycles will be drawn among those present.
These bicycles are not mere gifts – each one represents one of Magdi’s virtues, which have accompanied us throughout the time of spiritual preparation:
-
Love of Nature – the secret of presence and contemplation
-
Determination – the hope of the eternal feast
-
Faith – a source of strength for daily life
-
Love and Creativity – the path of serving love
-
Joy – the serenity and gratitude of the heart
-
Courage – fidelity to our decisions
-
Purity – a heart consecrated to Christ
-
Martyrdom – the ultimate testimony of faith
Just as Magdi’s bicycle once symbolized service, perseverance, and the proclamation of the Gospel, so we too are invited to set out in body and spirit – passing on the faith, love, and courage that her life continues to exemplify.
Only six days remain until we joyfully celebrate Magdi’s beatification together!
