Parish Transformation aims to revitalize parish communities as they strive to remain faithful to the mission Christ has imparted to us. Pope Francis warns us not to engage in a process of self-preservation whereby we just look inward and fail to recognize that our mission requires going beyond the internal affairs of parish life.
JOY OF THE GOSPEL IN RELATIONSHIP WITH TODAY'S CATHOLIC CHURCH
God love us all and we have a mandate to show people. The Scripture is the source of evangelization and we have to learn it. It is not good enough to be passive -- we have to be active listeners and doers.
