Parishes, lynchpin of the New Evangelization

Cardinal Donald W. Wuerl of the Archdiocese of Washington, DC, in the United States made this statement at the end of General Congregations, ahead of the phase in which the Synod Fathers hold small group discussions. He stated that there is general agreement, among the bishops,  on the importance of the parishes in the development of the New Evangelism.

Note from the Minister of St. Angela Merici Fraternity:

The challenge for us Secular Franciscans is to think of ways that we can encourage the growth of the Catholic Faith in our respective parishes and the communities where we live. Perhaps, all fraternities should give this some thought and collectively come up with creative ideas to extend the New Evangelization in their home churches and the community, at large. Let us follow our Seraphic Father, St. Francis's example in building up the Church. Let us follow the "Call of San Damiano".

If your parish is participating in activities in the Year of Faith, I encourage you to take part and, perhaps, even sponsor, or develop such activities.
