A CALL TO
VIBRANT
PARISH LIFE |
For
most Catholics, church life is parish life. Because parish is central to
our spiritual life & growth, strengthening parish life is one of the
most important things we can do to support the life of our Church. In his Vibrant
Parish Life pastoral
letter, Bishop Pilla is inviting each parish to reflect on who we are and
to shape the Church we will be in the future. In the coming weeks, we will
be printing excerpts of Vibrant Parish
Life in the bulletin. |
