We recently mentioned the elections here and how the winning party would likely shape the future towards national independence or towards collaboration with the federal government.
Without going into much detail, the winning president (Artur Mas) has clearly stated that one of the party's fundamental goals in the next four years will be to hold a referendum to form a new European country. Will it actually happen? We don't know. But we do know that in the meantime, there are many opportunities to listen to people and point them to an eternal citizenship full of hope. Jesus' word's to his disciples are very encouraging to us during this time. Our freedoms and food are not the essence of life.
