Welcome to the Ordinary Times of the church year,
A semester in a week! That's what I just completed. It was an amazing experience listening and sharing information
In last week's eBlast, I shared that I was attending a course on Evangelism. I included a survey which asked, "Is evangelism interesting to you?" The results have me really curious! Either no one read the eBlast or... no one is interested in evangelism, because only two people answered the survey saying that evangelism was interesting to them. I'm going with the former.
I shared in my initial reflection for the course, that I feel that evangelism is a word we don't want to say, let alone do. I feel that the word has been co-opted. Which is why the focus of the project/paper I will be writing reorients our understanding of the word evangelism into an acronym -> W.E. C.A.N.

I believe this is something we are all doing now! Interested in learning about that? Let me know.
Blessings as we move through Ordinary Time together, Pastor JJ |
