It must embrace the community in active and energetic ways. Love cannot contain itself. By its nature, it overflows and reaches out to all. Renewal begins with a eucharistic heart, and continues with an increasing awareness of our importance as children of God and sisters and brothers of Christ. As the years pass and our prayer deepens, we begin to know with St. Paul that Christ truly lives in us.
Authentic renewal can only go forward with evangelization.
The mission of the church is to bring good news to all. In the eucharistic community that mission is brought about and celebrated. Fueled by Divine Love, and directing our minds and hearts to the service of the Lord and of others, we come to the task of evangelization with confidence that our efforts will bring the good news to those who wait. There are many. They long for the love of God and, often enough, are not able to name what they long for.
