Sunday, January 29, the faithful from Galilee gathered to celebrate the Feast of the Beatitudes.
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” These were Jesus’ opening words in the Sermon on the Mount, which was Sunday’s Liturgy, on January 29th. On this occasion, as every year, many of the faithful from Galilee gathered on the Mount of the Beatitudes for a special mass, along with several priests, religious and bishops.
