September 30 2010, today ended months of jubilee celebrations in honor of San Nile. The faithful of the parish have been taken in the romantic scenery of Gnaeus Fonteo Club near the beach and saw the Nile every day and the place chosen to spend the last years of life. Yesterday there were the lights of the party, not the lamp post by the Nile. During the celebration, the Rev.mo Don Giuseppe Sparagna had to devote to mind the words of the heart, not those who are preparing for special occasions. Yesterday a voice in the rustling of the trees and the whisper of the waves, whispered the message to all of the Nile: holiness unites, not divides. We hear it during the Holy Mass: " all the saints in every time you were thanked ". What does it mean? It means that not everyone understands. San Nile, Nile, as a man than as a saint, was the unity of peoples and religions of his creed. Nile teaches how to live with others, not against others. The celebrations this month were the form that we, today, in 2010, we can use to tell everybody that we are all united, that we are the parish community, we cooked, sewed, shot barrels, prayed together, not for everyone itself. San Nile is the patron saint of Gaeta, but this prevents us from thinking that we protect it? San Nile is not a saint of the beach umbrellas. Nile St., San Cosma, San Damiano, St. Erasmus, St. Mark's the grandmother of all Sant'Anna, not have territorial boundaries, that are imposed by man. The devotion is unlimited roads. It has no historical limitations. Nile was in Gaeta, remove this parenthesis because no one has ever seen?

Text transit of San Nilo (clik on the picture to enlarge)
We like to imagine that last night, after having distributed the bread symbolic, the symbolic light of the transit of the Nile, the Nile itself sitting on a cloud in place that is not tangible earth, has seen how we remembered him. Closed the door, closed the gate, two young men approach him, smile, has a slightly mischievous air, is the youngest, his name is Damien. The other has a mature smile, solemn air, called Cosmos. Cosma reach out to the Nile, helps him get up. Damiano keeps him at arm showing all his confident smile.
"Let Nile ... there's a light burning over there called "
Two bishops have already clothed with the sun on the top step of white cloud, the sky is white, they are themselves whites. Erasmus and Marciano prior to the flame that ignites the hope of mankind ...
