In an emotional dialogue on the program &#8220;En Camino&#8221; on Radio Mar\u00eda, the guests highlighted that the composition titled <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iec2024.ec\/en\/materials\/\"><span>&#8220;En torno a tu mesa&#8221;<\/span><\/a><span>,\u00a0 What was it\u00a0 <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iec2024.ec\/en\/official-presentation-of-the-logo-and-anthem-of-the-53rd-international-eucharistic-congress-2024\/\"><span>el himno ganador del IEC 2024<\/span><\/a><span>, <\/span><strong>It carries a message of fraternity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A process inspired by the Holy Spirit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Marco Antonio Esp\u00edn recounted that he learned about the call to participate in the hymn composition contest through a phone call from Franciscan friar Oscar Castro, who encouraged him to work on the project of creating the hymn. He mentioned that this phone call changed the course of his rest, as he had not planned to embark on any other musical project after winning a Christmas carol contest. However, after speaking with Friar Oscar, he accepted the challenge with enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe composition of the hymn was a process filled with the Holy Spirit. As soon as Friar Oscar told me about the contest, I dedicated myself to studying and working on the melody. We had about four or five months, but with only a week left, we had nothing concrete. Then, one day at three in the morning, a melody came into my head. I went down to the studio and recorded it. From that melody, which I shared with Friar Oscar Castro, we worked on the hymn\u2019s lyrics,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He affirmed that this melody was given by the Holy Spirit. \u201cIt\u2019s not ours; it\u2019s a song from God given to Ecuador and the world,\u201d Marco Antonio expressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Work in fraternity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For his part, Friar Oscar Castro, a member of the group Solideo, highlighted the collaborative effort in creating the hymn. \u201cWhen I received Marco\u2019s proposal, I didn\u2019t know that the theme of IEC 2024 was \u2018Fraternity to Heal the World,\u2019 but without knowing it, we aligned it with the message of fraternity.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;Around Your Table,&#8217; the official hymn of IEC 2024, highlights Jesus who gives and shares at the Eucharistic table. It is a call to the Church to love and live in fraternity. This hymn is much more than a melody; it is a song that unites us and fills us with joy,\u201d said Friar Oscar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>A Hymn for the World<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For Friar Oscar Castro, the creative process of the hymn &#8220;Around Your Table&#8221; was a true manifestation of fraternity and teamwork<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iec2024.ec\/en\/artistas-catolicos\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">El himno tambi\u00e9n ha resonado a nivel internacional<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, &#8220;Touching and uniting those who sing it.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you want to be part of the 53rd International Eucharistic Congress?
