CALLED TO BEAR FRUIT CONSULTATION:
Thank you to all who took part
and for sharing so openly your hopes
for the life of the Church.
The response, with 15 actions points
for renewal, is available at rcaos.org.uk/calledtobearfruit
or in hardcopy form from Fr Sean.
It revealed a burning desire within
parishes to be missionary and
evangelising disciples of the
Lord Jesus Christ, who work together
to help people encounter His love.
So, as we move forward on the next steps together, let's build up the Body of Christ
with faith and confidence, becoming ever
more a community of missionary disciples
filled with joy and hope for the future.
We will continue the process of renewal
and further updates will be provided
in due course.
