The Power of Story: Letnen Parish Mission March 11-13, 2024
"Faith is not the product of reflection, nor is it even an attempt to penetrate the depths of my own being. Both these things may be present, but they remain insufficient without the ‘listening’ through which God, from without, from a story he himself created, challenges me." (Pope Benedict XVI)

Tuesday Night: Becoming God's Storytellers
The kerygma is the message of the Gospel; the apostolic proclamation of salvation through Jesus Christ. It is the core and heart of our faith - the foundation of the Good News we are called to proclaim in word and deed. The most powerful proclamation of the kerygma is the one that comes from out of your personal encounter with the life-changing power of the person of Jesus. The most effective proclamation tool you have at your fingertips is your answer to this question: What difference has Jesus made in your life?
