"Awakened and energized
by the Spirit, let us strengthen our commitment and intensify our
efforts to help the adults in our communities be touched and transformed
by the life-giving message of Jesus, to explore its meaning, experience
its power, and live in its light as faithful adult disciples today. Let
us do our part with creativity and vigor, our hearts aflame with love to
empower adults to know and live the message of Jesus. This is the Lord's
work. In the power of the Spirit it will not fail but will bear lasting
fruit for the life of the world." -Our Hearts Were Burning Within Us: A Pastoral Plan for Adult Faith Formation in the United States U.S. Catholic Conference |
