Description
Rescheduled for May 15th, see other event.
We read in Pope St. Paul VI’s Evangelii Nuntiandi, “Evangelizing is in fact the grace and the vocation proper to the Church, her deepest identity. She exists in order to evangelize!” This presentation will focus on how we as Church (in parishes as well as individually) are called to live this fundamental mission. Practical tools for implementation included!
