“We prepare ourselves for this renewal as much as we look towards the new life that the Lord is offering to those who are going to be baptised, and us who already have been baptised.”

This resource is intended for families, RCIA groups, parish organisations and ministries, small Christian communities and neighbourhood Christian communities. It may also be used for individual reflection.

To promote the Christian community in the neighbourhood as a place where we can hear the word of God and put it into practice.

To give participants an experience of community and a sense of their mission by reaching out to neighbours and those in need.

To gather parish organisations/ministries to pray together as one and put Christ back in the centre.

To increase communication between family members. Love should be the main message in all communication, so the sessions are aimed at families sharing stories, doing meaningful activities together, sharing faith, and being reconciled with each other.
