"Go boldly forth!" (EG261) says Pope Francis, and we can do this in our parish community - but where do we start? The power of taking action in our local community to reach out to meet those who are poor, vulnerable and oppressed and discover Christ in them is an inspiring for every person who experiences this. Jesus Christ and Pope Francis inspire us with examples of being "border-crossers" of going to 'the margins' of society and loving those we meet. We can follow their example, and doing so as a parish community is a transformational experience of God's evangelising love for the world. In this workshop you will explore how to engage with your local community, the practical steps of beginning a local outreach program and gain an understanding how your Catholic parishioners can grow in their faith through taking action in your community with people and families who are in need of support.
