GO REBUILD MY CHURCH - PATTERNS

GO REBUILD MY CHURCH - PATTERNS

This week, Peter and Leslie discuss what they believe is the most important call from the Holy Spirit to the American Church: to move from maintenance to mission! According to the latest statistics, Catholic weddings have decreased significantly since 1970. Only one-third of Catholics believe in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, and seventy percent of American Catholics do not practice their Faith. This backdrop calls for a re-examination of how the Church was built, as seen in the Acts of the Apostles. Just as the Lord gave Moses a pattern for building the Tabernacle in the Wilderness, the Holy Spirit gave us a Pattern for building the Church in the Acts. To rebuild the Church, we must rediscover the patterns prescribed by the Spirit and be courageous pioneers to move from maintenance to mission. May Jesus Christ give us the grace to fulfill this call!
