Jesus, present!

He taught us a lot, brother Jesus: with simplicity, humility, patience and, above all, with good humor. Today he has become an impulse to keep going, despite the pain we feel for his absence.

He has always been and will continue to be a great example. And how can we not follow, if he always arrived punctually to the Assemblies, challenging the long journey; and sang and laughed with us; if despite his ailments he walked enthusiastically to visit and form new libraries, carrying books and collecting culture; if he never stopped calling to greet us and send his greetings to other brothers and sisters. He used the hospital wards to share stories. He became a light of hope for many; he trained many and always accompanied us.

Today, this library family mourns his departure.

But we are also proud to have our brother here with us.
