On Becoming a Better Church: Ascension Sunday (Lk 24:46-53) (7 ET)

This homily is a theological introduction to our parish wide pastoral planning process. In these days for than ever, our churches are called to excellence. We are beginning a pastoral planning process to access ourselves in the five key areas of a vibrant church; Sunday Worship, Sense of Welcome, Sense of Belonging, Sense of Witness, and Sense of Mission so we can build on our strengths and improve on our weaknesses.  This homily is for the members of our church, or anyone who wishes to help make their church a better church.
