THE NEW WEBSITE OF THE FOUNDATION

The works are in progress but we want to share this project at the point where we are, as a sign of hope.

Immediately after the International Symposium on Pedagogy of Holiness (Rome, 5-9 February 2020), our lives were overwhelmed by the pandemic that is still present in our countries and which we try to face with courage and hope, aware that we are all in the same boat, with the guide of Pope Francis.

In recent months we have tried to maintain contact with each other, we have felt close to "our witnesses", saints, blesseds, venerables, servants of God, significant figures who always accompany us.

As Secretariat of the Foundation we have tried to work, making concrete a commitment undertaken together during the Symposium: to create a new website of the Foundation with special attention to new communication tools, will be usable on mobile phones and with international recipients and therefore in three languages: Italian, Spanish, English. The new site is built with the wordpress platform,  already prepared to be able to become, in the future, also an app.

The works are in progress  but we want to share this project at the point where we are, one year after our meeting, as a sign of hope and also to ask for your help.

PRESENTATION FORM OF THE NEW SITE

Each witness is introduced with a summary sheet in which it is possible to immediately obtain the fundamental information on the figure and on the process of his cause. In particular, we also wanted to highlight the link between the witness and Catholic Action. From the summary file you have access to analytical information such as the biography, the initiatives, the popular material, the quotes and texts of the witness, the publications and the media.

One is active alphabetical search and above all one analytical research on witnesses: by type, country (for Italian witnesses there is also the possibility of searching for them by region), by age (young people, adults, children), state of life, profession, relationship with Catholic Action.

In the general part of the site, we have instead inserted information about the Foundation, on its activities, publications and a menu “About holiness” with which we intend to share information relating to the processes of beatification and canonization to the users of the site.

Those who visit the site will find the homepage at the top left  liturgical memory of the witness of the day, on days when a saint or blessed witness is remembered. On days when liturgical memories are not remembered, a will appear holiness quote, taken from the various speeches of the Popes to Catholic Action.

The witnesses of Catholic Action whose data we have so far collected are more than 400 and we are convinced that, thanks to the possibility of presenting them in multiple languages, other figures will soon be added.
