NORVAL MLADIFEST 2015 — PAGE 1


July 3-5, 2015

Norval - Ontario - Canada


Draga hrvatska katolička mladeži! Evo nas i treću godinu za redom na Norvalu, da svečano proslavimo od 3. – 5. srpnja 2015. susret mla-dih Hrvata katolika, Amerike i Kanade. Uvjeren sam da se svi veselimo ovom susretu. I zato radosno kličemo: „Dobro nam došli dragi mladići i djevojke iz hr-vatskih župa Amerike i Kanade!“ Jer je ovo je vaš susret i dolazite na živi Božji izvor duhovne i tjelesne okrepe. Sveti papa Ivan Pavao II. nadahnut Duhom Svetim je začetnik susreta mladih katolika cijeloga svije-ta. Upravo će se iduće godine 2016. Svjetski dan mladih održati u Krakovu u Poljskoj, u domovini svetog pape Ivana Pavla II. kojega i vama toplo preporuču-jemo. I Crkva u Hrvata svake druge godine organizira susret katoličke mladeži na koje se okupi de-setci tisuća mladih. Idući susret bit će 2017. u mučeničkom gradu Vukovaru.

Evo po vašoj želji mi Mladifest održavamo svake godine na ovom velikom Sjeverno- američ-kom kontinentu početkom mjeseca srpnja. Ovogodišnje geslo susreta je Marijansko iz knjige Otkri-venja: „I znamenje veliko pokaza se na nebu, žena zaogrnuta suncem, mjesec joj pod nogama, a na glavi joj vijenac od dvanaest zvijezda“ (Otk 12, 1).

Ovaj naš suret i sve njegove sudionike stavljamo pod okrilje i zagovor Isusove i naše majke Marije. Mi Hrvati na poseban način častimo Blaženu Djevicu Mariju jer smo toliko puta u svojoj bur-noj povijesti osjetili njezin majčinski zagovor. S krunicom u ruci i oko vrata uspjeli smo se obraniti i pobjediti mnogo jače i bolje naoružane neprijatelje. I vi ćete na ovom susretu dobiti krunice koje ste sami izradili i neka vam budu znak da ste djeca Marijina i da je ona vaša majka koja bdije nad svakim vašim korakom. I još nešto! Nalazimo se u godini „Posvećenog Života.“ Ako netko od vas osjeti poziv za svećeništvo ili redovništvo nemojte odbiti taj Božji poziv. Biti Isusov apostol je nešto najljepše što ti se u životu može dogoditi. Dobro ovih dana u dubini duše poslušajte što vam to Isus govori i nudi.

Sretni smo da i ove godine za voditelja ovoga susreta možemo imati don Damira Stojića, ali i još mnoge druge specijalne goste koji će vas duhovno krijepiti i jačati.

I na koncu iskreno hvala organizatorima ovoga susreta fra Tomislavu Peku i don Tomislavu Kasiću iz Kanade, te fra Stipi Reniću i vlč. Vedranu Kirinčiću iz Amerike. A posebno hvala fra Marku Puljiću ravnatelju Franjevačkog Središta na Norvalu koji je i po treći put za redom prihvatio da se ovaj susret održi na Norvalu i za ljubav i pažnju kojom nas obasiplje.

Ako Bog da iduće godine 2016. ovaj susret je predviđen u hrvatskoj župi Srca Isusova u Milwaukee u Americi.

Dobri Bog po zagovoru Blažene djevice Marije Majke Crkve i Kraljice Neba i Zemlje neka na sve sudionike i voditelje ovoga susreta izlije obilje svoga blagoslova i mira. Oakville, 30. svibnja 2015. Mons. Ivan Vukšić Delegat za Kanadu


Mladifest 2015 Weekend schedule


NAŠI GOSTI SISTER RUŽICA DODIG

Sister Ružica on set for the theme song/video for the gathering of Croatian Catho-lic Youth in Dubrovnik, which took place in April 2014. Award winning rendition of

"Happy", directed and edited

by sister Ružica.

Sister Ružica Dodig is a member of the religious or-der of the Handmaids of Charity founded by Saint Maria Crocifissa Di Rosa from Italy. Having comple-ted theology studies sister Ružica worked at a high school and through her work with young people she developed and interest in artistic expressions of youth through dance, play, song and drama. Recog-nizing talents among students as well as collaborati-on on original projects were among some of the go-als of the expressive arts workshops she has held.

Sister Ružica continued to develop her artistic inte-

rests at the Academy of Arts in Italy where she graduated in Video, Sound, and Game Design. Con-sidering her growing interest in the way music and pictures influence young people, she graduated with a degree in Graphic Design with a project on “Music Videos in Education and Promotion.”

She now works as an educator at the student residence Paula Di Rosa in Dubrovnik where she devo-tes special attention to the development of expression of young people through multimedia.

How does sister Ružica see the world? Through a pixel. A pixel is the smallest unit of a picture. It is wonderful living in the faith that we are all pixels in God’s beautiful picture. What is necessary to see a pixel on a computer screen? Light. We all need God’s light in order to re-cognize each other as unique gifts.

He went on to work as the associate pastor at the “Duh Sveti” and “Sveta Mati Slobode” parishes at Jarun in Zagreb. In 2004. he went on to graduate studies in moral theology in Washington, DC, at the Catholic University of America where he received his master’s degree on the topic of “Principles of Catholic social teaching on the rights of minorities”. During his studies he was the pastor at the Croatian Catholic mission St. Blaise in Washington, DC, as well as the student chaplain at the University of America. He returned to Croatia once again in 2007 where he was decreed by the Archbishop of Zagreb, Josip Bozanić, to be the student chaplain at the University of Zagreb. He is a member of the youth ministry commission of the conference of Croa-

tian Catholic bishops as well as a member of the Croatian salesian province. He promotes the “Theology of the Body” based on the writings of Bl. John Paul II. by hosting forums, lectures, semi-nars, retreats across Croatia and abroad. Aside from being the stu-dent chaplain he also fulfills his regular pastoral duties at the “Sv. Mati Slobode” church in Zagreb.

Svemogući vječni Bože! Zahvaljujemo Ti što si nas stvorio tako čudesno! Živimo ovdje u Sjevernoj Americi, daleko od hr-vatske zemlje naših očeva i pradjedova. Ti si vo-dio svoj narod iz tuđine prema obećanoj zemlji; molimo Te vodi i nas da upoznamo spasenjsku moć Tvoga Sina Isusa Krista koji, usred ponuda ovoga svijeta, jedini donosi istinsku sreću i ra-dost. Želimo biti Tvoje ruke i tvoje noge kako bi liječili rane ovoga svijeta, kako bi širili Tvoju ljubav i dobrotu gdje god prolazimo. Po zagovoru hrvats-kih blaženika, svetaca i naše nebeske majke Ma-rije, želimo posvetiti svoju mladost Tebi i tako postati tvoji sveci novog tisućljeća. Sada je naše vrijeme, sada je vrijeme spasenja, računaj na nas, Gospodine, kao što i mi računamo na Tvoju pomoć i vodstvo! To te molimo po Kristu Gospodinu našemu. Amen.

Almighty and everlasting God! We thank You for creating us so wonderfully! We live here in North America far from the Croatian land of our fathers and forefathers. You led your people from foreign places toward the Promised Land; we pray that You lead us also so that we may come to know the saving power of Your son Jesus Christ who, among the offers of this world, is the only one who brings true happiness and joy. We want to be Your hands and feet so that we may heal the wounds of this world, that we may spread Your love and goodness wherever we go. Through the intercession of the Croatian blessed, saints, and our heavenly mother, Mary, we want to dedicate our youth to You so that we may Your saints of the new millennium. Now is our time, now is the time of salvation, count on us Lord as we count on Your help and guidance! We pray this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Molitva Mladifesta Mladifest prayer

Zdravo, presveta Djevice i Majko Božja Marijo, moćna zaštitnice naše domovine Hrvatske! Premda nevrijedni da ti služimo, ipak uzdajući se u

ljubav i divnu blagost Tvoju izabiremo Te danas pred cijelim dvorom nebeskim za Gospodaricu, odvjetnicu i majku svoju i cijelog našeg naroda

te čvrsto odlučujemo da ćemo Ti drage volje i vjerno služiti. Molimo te usrdno da nam svima uz prijestolje Božanskoga Sina isprosiš milost i milosrđe, spasenje i blagoslov, pomoć i zaštitu u svim pogibeljima i

nevoljama. Ti si kraljica i majka milosrđa, pomoćnica kršćana i tješiteljica žalosnih. Zato ti iskazujemo svoje djetinje pouzdanje kako Ti je naš narod

vazda kroz vjekove iskazivao. Tvojoj majčinskoj zaštiti preporučujemo svoje duhovne i svjetovne poglavare, cijelu našu domovinu i cijeli naš narod u ovim teškim vremenima kušnja. Izmoli nam svima vjernost u

katoličkoj vjeri, da u krilu svete Crkve provodimo dane u miru i bez straha, u blagostanju i poštenju i tako zavrijedimo doći jednom do vječnog života

da slavimo ondje Trojedinog Boga uvijeke. Amen.

Molitva bl. Alojzija Stepinca Gospi za Hrvatsku


SIGNUM MAGNUM PARUIT IN CAELO means: A GREAT SIGN APPEARED IN HEAVEN: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; and she was with child; and she cried out, being in labor and in pain to give birth. The Red Dragon, Satan Then another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon havingseven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems. And his tail swept away a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child. The Male Child, Christ And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron; and her child was caught up to God and to His throne. Then the woman fled into the wilderness where she had a place prepared by God, so that there she would be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days. The Angel, Michael And there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon. The dragon and his angels waged war, and they were not strong enough, and there was no longer a place found for them in heaven. And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night. And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death. For this reason, rejo-ice, O heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has co-me down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time.” And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child. But the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly into the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent. And the serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood. But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river which the dragon poured out of his mouth. So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Je-sus.


SO THEN, BRETHREN, STAND FIRM AND HOLD TO THE TRADITIONS WHICH YOU WERE TAUGHT, WHETHER BY

WORD OF MOUTH OR BY LETTER FROM US. 2 THESSALONIANS 2:15

AS WE THANK GOD FOR WONDERFUL 3 MLADIFESTS AT NORVAL, WE WISH THE BEST OF LUCK TO THE ORGANIZERS OF MILWAUKEE MLADIFEST 2016!
