| The Joy of the Gospel – Pope Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation |
 By Darren McDowell
(Coordinator Adult Faith Formation) “I invite all Christians, everywhere, at this very moment, to a renewed personal encounter with Jesus Christ, or at least an openness to letting him encounter them; I ask all of you to do this unfailingly each day. No one should think that this invitation is not meant for him or her, since ‘no one is excluded from the joy brought by the Lord.’” (Pope Francis, Evangelii Gaudium, 3)  |
| Bishop Peter initiates Youth Ministry Consultation |
 By Christy Honeysett Have you ever heard this phrase: "I was born in 1981, so whether I am a ‘young person’ or not probably depends on your perspective. I am however passionate about youth ministry and believe that we as Church need to give our young people the best opportunity to develop their gifts and talents so they are empowered in their relationship with Jesus and their faith does not wither and fade." |
