“One way of renewing parishes…might be to consider the parish as a community of communities and movements.”
John Paul II, The Church in America (Ecclesia in America), 41
The pope’s vision of renewal (“the parish as a community of communities and movements”), at the parish level, is an invitation for each parish to develop and grow in its own expression of this vision.
The materials in the Parish Vision area address parish leaders, staff, and Parish Core Community members. The Parish Vision area is designed to assist parish leadership in charting a course in which the vision of a community of communities can be realized.
Parish Vision materials include concrete ways in which small communities can assist renewal of parish life through helping people to learn the way of discipleship of Jesus Christ within the Church and through reaching out in evangelization and social justice.
