5 WELCOME WELCOME TO CONGRESS March 2014 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Welcome to the 2014 Religious Education Congress of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles! The theme that gathers us this year, Hope: A World Afire, is a wonderful invitation for each one of us. The more we grow in the theological virtue of hope, the more we will be able to set the world on fire, the more we will be able to transform it into a better place, filled with love, peace, justice and respect for all. In order to do this, we should always remember what kind of hope we are talking about. Pope Francis explained it beautifully: Hope is not optimism. Hope is a present, it s a gift from the Holy Spirit. St. Paul tells us that hope has a name. Hope is Christ. If you don t say: I have hope in Jesus Christ, a person that s alive, that lives in the Eucharist, that is present in His word, that is not hope. It could be good mood, optimism... Jesus, the hope, renews everything: in my life, in your life, in our lives. He rebuilds. And what He builds again is precisely the reason of our hope. He s the reason of our hope. And this hope does not delude because He is faithful. This is the virtue of hope. May the Lord, who is the hope of glory, who is the center, the whole, help us in this path: to give hope, to have passion for hope. I pray that these days of formation, fellowship, prayer and worship may be an excellent opportunity to grow in knowledge and understanding of our Catholic faith, as well as love and devotion to the Lord Jesus, whom we serve in our daily life, in our work, ministry, family and public life. May God bless you abundantly during this weekend and in all you do. Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Rev. José H. Gomez Archbishop of Los Angeles Religious Education Congress

7 WELCOME March 2014 Dear Friends, It is always a great joy for me to welcome you to our spirited Religious Education Congress. This amazing weekend offers many opportunities for re-energizing our lives, for resourcing and enriching our ministries. This year s theme, Hope: A World Afire, flows from the transfiguration story proclaimed on the second Sunday of Lent. Hope rooted in grace and goodness shines brightly on the face of Jesus. Knowing that the fruit of hope is boldness, we commit to light fires of hope and set our world ablaze with the Gospel story and our commitment to the catechetical ministry. As you will recall, a Religious Education Endowment Fund has been established in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles for the ongoing education and formation of Directors of Religious Education, Adult Educators, Young Adults and Youth Ministers. The fund is currently enabling 18 students to pursue a master s degree in Religious Education. Your gift offering at the 2013 Congress Saturday night liturgies together with registration contributions added $43,154 to this fund. We thank for your ongoing generosity. The variety of workshops and keynotes available throughout the weekend are excellent resources for formation and enrichment for you and for your communities of faith. The opportunity to listen and be renewed by the wisdom offered by national and international speakers is truly gift and blessing. Our spirits are sure to be lifted by the inspirational liturgical celebrations, entertainment and multicultural experiences provided. At the center of the many activities, there is also opportunity to spend time in prayer in the contemplative environment provided in Sacred Space, walk the labyrinth or avail of the sacrament of reconciliation. Thank you for your wonderful leadership and your faithful dedication to sharing the Good News. I look forward to greeting you at this spirit-filled event. I look forward to welcoming you. Sr. Edith Prendergast, RSC Director, Office of Religious Education Religious Education Congress
