“It came to pass that Jesus was praying in a place, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples. And he said to them: When you pray, say: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be your name… ”(Luke 11, 1-13).
Magdala, Israel. -Under the theme “Lord, teach us to pray”, Magdala will carry out its sixth virtual pilgrimage through the Holy Land, which will be broadcast from Monday, February 12 to April 4, 2024.
“We are going to tour the Holy Land hand in hand with God. After Jesus spent whole nights here in prayer, what did he do? He came out of his prayer, he came out of his holy hiding place, and he went down here, to Galilee, where he found the crowds, the sick, the demon-possessed, and he announced the Kingdom of God to everyone. May the heart of Jesus, who came out of here, from prayer and found people, also teach us to pray this Lent,” comments Father Juan María Solana, L.C., director and founder of Magdala, from a Grotto of Mount Arbel, Galilee, Israel.
Through the Facebook page “Magdala en Español” (www.facebook.com/magdalaenespanol) and the YouTube channel “Magdala en Español” (https://www.youtube.com/@MagdalaEspanol) pilgrims will explore the fourth part of the catechism of the Catholic Church dedicated to prayer in the Christian life. They will immerse themselves in the richness of prayer, its importance and how to integrate it into their lives.
From Monday to Friday, 30-minute capsules will be broadcast with catechesis, interviews and spiritual talks; and on Saturdays there will be workshops that will serve as an opportunity to deepen what was learned during the week, offering practical exercises and additional reflections. Additionally, every day, at 08:00 a.m. (Mexico City); 09:00 hours, (Miami); and 4:00 p.m. (Holy Land, Israel) the holy mass will be transmitted from Magdala, Israel.
It should be noted that the pilgrimage is free. To receive news, introductory talks, video of the day and extra materials that will complement the experience, subscribe on the Magdala website: www.magdala.org
