Angel from the Heaven, go with haste
To the festering - frosty Budapest
There, between the Russian tanks
The bells are silent.
Where Christmas isn't bright.
There aren't any golden nuts on the trees,
There is nothing else than, frost, shivering, hunger.
Tell them, so that they can understand!
Speak loudly in the night:
Angel, deliver message of a miracle!
Flap your wings quickly,
Fly, swiftly, because they're waiting.
Don't tell them about the world,
Where candles are burning,
Tables are full in warm houses,
Cleric cheers with fair words
Flimsy is whispering, gift,
Wise words are deliberating, smart design,
Sparkler is sparking on the trees,
Angel, now You speak of miracle!
Tell this, because this is the wonder of the world:
A poor nation's Christmas tree in the
Silent Night it began to be on fire
And now a lot make a sign of the cross.
Continents people just watch, and watch,
Some understand it, some of them don't.
They are thinking, this is too much for thousands.
They are praying or shuddering,
Because something else hangs on the tree, not candy:
Christ of folks, Hungary!
And a lot of passes by:
The soldier, who poked him in the heart,
The Farizeus, who sold it,
Who denied, three times.
He dipped his hand in the same bowl,
Wanted to sale it for thirty silver coins
And while he abused Him,
Hit Him, accused Him:
Now the people just stand and stare,
But nobody can say nothing to Him.
Because He doesnt says nothing, neither is accusing,
Stares, like Christ from the cross.
This Christmas tree is very odd,
Devil brought it, or Angel brought it,
Who cast die on His robe,
They don't know what are they doing,
They just suspect it
The secret of this night,
Because this is one odd Christmas:
The Hungarian nation hangs on those trees.
And the world speaks of a miracle,
Clerics speaks of bravery.
The state man starts it,
The holy Pope blesses him.
And every folk, and orders
Now questioning, why this had to happen.
Why didn't they extinctioned as others wanted?
Why didn't they just waited the end of it?
Why, how the sky opened,
A nation sad: Enough!
These people do not understand,
What has rised like the sea?
Why did world orders shaken?
A nation shouted. Then silenced.
But now a lot of them asks: What happened?
Who did make law out of bone, and flesh?
And more of them asks
Stammerly, because they really don't understand
Them, who inherited:
Is freedom this big?
Angel, deliver the message from the sky,
They will be always new life out of blood.
They met each other sometimes
The child, the donkey, and the shepherd
In the litter, next to the manger,
If life gives birth,
They still guard the miracle,
They stand guard with their breath,
Because the star is bright, the dawn shatters,
Tell them: angel from the Heaven

Yesterday I stopped off at Szováta and held a holy mass for the children ! It was good to be together with the children , to listen to the dreams , aspirations of the two older girls , to realise that no matter how many problems , difficulties there are but behold there are some real pearls here-and there as well shining !!How great if we would not see the problems , worries at every turn , but the fruits of our endeavours !!
With love,

I believe that it gives us an incredible sense of freedom when one can say : “ May You be blessed my Lord, for all the goodness, beauty that you have given us, but blessed be Your name even at times, when in Your holy wisdom You saw it fit, to caress us with a firmer hand, You lead , transform , mould us. “

God is not unjust ! But our course of life can be very different , it is equally difficult for all man to find salvation or to suffer eternal damnation.

It was good to give a blessing in the Parliament in Budapest !! I again understood that we were born to become a gift , to give blessings , ourselves as well from one step to another to become blessings ! Anybody can say anything but it is quite certain the God’s holy will is that wherever we live we become a gift for our surrounding !! Any other role that we accept out of curiosity, avarice , laziness or desire for power evokes pain, it’s like a sprained ligament that moves out of its God- given place! Of course one can live hobbling , suffering as well, to move around but why become a sore , a pain for your family, in the community of your people when you can be a gift as well the caress of our caring God , His good word, His blessing as well ?!
Lets dare to embark knowingly, joyfully on the way of love , lets dare wherever we are to be good , to do good, to become
a blessing !
With love ,

At times you may feel the world around you is falling apart, but you should still have faith: you are not going to be tested beyond your capability. Even if you are a bit scared , do not come to a holt , go on , the Infinity is waiting for you.

My heartfelt greetings to my dear Austrian friends and I thank them for all the support that they gave our children during the past 25 years! May God repay their goodness !

How many people fallen by the wayside are drifting helplessly , hopelessly, discouraged immersed in the unproductive every days of self-pity !? What a pity for them ! How great it would be if once more they could be involved again in the building of the Kingdom of God ! How good it was that Saint Paul, Saint Augustine , our father Saint Francis and for so many wonderful people that they had the strength , opportunity to start again, to get a second chance !!
In today’s world if someone has a fall and fractures something , they are hospitalised, they have x-rays done , they are put in plaster and the specialists will help to get them better. We are all patient , we visit them , we take them nice preserves .
Unfortunately when somebody “falls" in their humanity if their faith , hope, honesty are broken , then we easily pass judgement on them, step over them and we bend down to them with a great deal of difficulty just to say :” Come on I believe that you can get back on your feet again ! You know that man is not a throw-away hankie , and that is why that I profess that you can become God’s precious gift for your people, your church but even for the whole of mankind ! Trust in me because I want to help you that you maybe able to make God’s dream of you come true , a reality!Your life cannot remain a half-finished torso !! Let go of your hurts, your shame, your disappointment, perhaps even your own self and hold onto the hand of one even lesser than you with helping love !

“ I am trying to grant to the poor out of love that the rich people only get for money . No I would not touch a leper not even for a thousand pound : but out of love for God I take care of them with joy .”
