Our Lady Good Counsel

THE WORD FROM THE POPE for us...

We shall be starting a new experience for all of us.

On Monday, February 9th, we shall start in our parish the catechesis of the Neocatechumenal Way.

What did Pope John Paul II say about it?

"In 1990:  I too, as Bishop of Rome, have been able to verify the abundant fruits of personal conversion and fruitful missionary impulse in the many meetings I have had with the Neocatechumenal Communities and their Pastors. Hence I acknowledge the Neocatechumenal Way as an itinerary of Catholic formation, valid for our society and for our times. It is therefore my wish that the Brothers in the Episcopate-together with their presbyters-value and help this work for the new evangelization so that it may be implemented according to the lines proposed by its initiators."

In 1994: "The Neocatechumenal Way can be utilized for building up a parish capable of forming adults who are firmly rooted in Christ, in his word and in his mysteries... It will effectively contribute to imprinting on parishes the typical style of the new evangelization: a style marked by what is essential and radical, immersed in the mystery of the dead and risen Christ and courageously open to the needs of the modern man."

This experiences has arrived in our parish.
