When Jesus founded the Church he gave us a mission: to go and make disciples of all nations. Catholics have labored at this mission since Jesus' return to heaven at the Ascension.
As we look at the Catholic Church in the five counties of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia there are many wonderful things that have happened in the past and are happening today. There are also many challenges and many things that have been done that have caused pain and loss of trust.
Archbishop Perez has issued a Pastoral Letter to our Church. He offers his vision for where we must go in order to be who Christ Jesus needs us to be in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
Please make time to read the letter, watch his video message and thoughtfully consider what is being said. There will be opportunities to discuss the content of the letter and the plan that will unfold.
Sign up to join in a conversation about the Letter...
