They should put them on network tv

quote: In less than three weeks, 3,000 Catholics returned to the Church in the Diocese of Phoenix due to the effort of a new lay apostolate, CatholicsComeHome.org.
I suspect if more dioceses adopted this approach, this might become more widespread than just Phoenix. People fall away for any number of reasons. Most of those reasons can be addressed by a welcoming parish willing to take the time to address these issues. And it needs to be as much of the parish as possible. One overworked priest, as much as he might like to, can't be expected to do it all.
Jesus meek and humble of heart, make my heart like yours. |

As part of this New Pentecost, we should be sending out this vignette to some of our Catholic friends:
