“Every Christian is challenged, here and now, to be actively engaged in evangelization; Indeed, anyone who has truly experienced God’s saving love does not need much time or lengthy training to go out and proclaim that love” (Pope Francis Evangelii Gaudium #120).
Come and GROW at the Annual Diocesan Conference as a disciple of Christ, and GO out into the world as a Missionary Disciple. So what are we waiting for?
