Given Church

We want to share this good news.

The first missionary Willibrord and Adelbertus arrived in Egmond around 1300 years ago. They brought the gospel and Christianity to the Netherlands.

Today the parish in Egmond gave some liturgical materials to one of the youngest Roman Catholic community made up of Sub Sahara Africa migrants, All Saints parish in Amsterdam.

 

We are happy to receive this gift from this parish. Not only the historical aspect of it makes this giving special. But seeing the joy in the giver, makes our receiving more joyful. It is written blessed is the hand that gives than the one that takes.

Highly blessed is the joy of giving and blessed is the joy of the hand that takes.

They gave without expectation. It is the ultimate expression of love.

We received in grace. It was our given back.

A given and receiving Church. Both are one and United.
