Family Identity Card is a book that Editrice Shalom has backed in order to continue telling the world about the beauty and necessity of the family!
The book grew out of the pastoral experience of Brother Remo Lupi, a Capuchin friar who has already authored countless works on spirituality.
It is a book that immediately “struck a chord” with Editrice Shalom because it fully reflects our identity: the Author has the ability, in a simple yet profound way, to address a current topic that has, in some respects, become thorny; a topic that needs to be examined with delicacy, sensitivity, and tact, while at the same time with enough clarity to avoid misunderstandings or fanciful interpretations.
In outlining this family identity card, Brother Remo is able to illuminate the fundamental aspects of the Christian family and, with great skill, delve into the details of everyday life: his words therefore do not remain on a purely theoretical level, but become part of the fabric that, day after day, weaves together the joyful and sorrowful events of every family.
And so, in these pages, every family can recognize itself and reflect on its own identity or on the need to rediscover the beauty that the “challenge” of being a family entails.
The book can help take stock of the situation and, if necessary, lay the foundations for a renewed journey. But it is also an encouragement for engaged couples who are taking the path toward becoming a family.
The book’s brevity is also a winning feature, allowing even those who truly have very little time to find a valuable tool for reflecting, alone, as a couple, and as a family, on the values that support every domestic church.
Precisely because walking, setting out again, reflecting, planning… is not always easy, Brother Remo Lupi is also offering a Rosary inspired by Pope Francis’s Amoris Laetitia, to provide a space for rest and renewed energy through the discreet power of prayer.
