A note from the Pastor
DearbrothersandsistersinChrist,
A
t the beginning of this Y ear of Mercy the Lord is
blessing our Parish with the “birth” of its First NeoCatechumenal Community. It’s the fruit of the Catechesis for
Adults and Youth that was concluded last week. At the end of
the Catechesis a group of men and women – some of which
reconnecting with the Church after a long time – have
responded to God’s call to begin the Neo-Catechumenal Way.
This fact fills all of us with great joy and gratitude to the Lord.
Many years ago I also began the Neo-Catechumenal
Way in my home parish in Italy. The Lord brought me back
into the Church through the Way while I was facing depression
and nonsense in my life at the age of 16. Thirty-three years
later I can witness to the good that the Way has done to me, to
my family, and many, many other people around the world.
Without a doubt, I wouldn’t be a priest, and I wouldn’t
probably be in the Church today, if I had not met the Way.
The Neo-Catechumenal Way is a Christian initiation
into the faith, a journey through which one can rediscover and
live his or her baptism in a small community within the parish.
Pope St. John Paul II acknowledged it in 1990 as “an itinerary
of Catholic formation, valid for our society and our times.” He
then encouraged all bishops to value and support the Way, a
reality “generated by the [Holy] Spirit in our days” whose
“fruits of personal conversion and fruitful missionary impulse”
he had personally been able to verify on many occasions.
Like any other fruitful reality inspired by the Holy
Spirit after the Second Vatican Council, the Way has been
misunderstood by many, and its “enemies” are not few. Many
ask me, “Father, haven’t you read what people write in the
Internet about the Way?” Well, I certainly don’t need to surf
the Internet to know about the Way: more than 30 years of
personal experience tell me enough, and certainly much more
than any casual statement posted somewhere in the Web.
Moreover, if I want to value any reality in the Church I must
appeal to those who have been entrusted by the Lord with the
task to confirm the work of the Holy Spirit, that is, his
Apostles and their successors.
On March 6, 2015, Pope Francis addressed a large
group of members of the Neo-Catechumenal Way gathered in
Rome. The initiators of the Way were also present. He said,
“The Pope’s task, the task of Peter, is to confirm his brothers
in the faith. Thus, you too wanted … to ask that the Successor
of Peter confirm your call, support your mission, bless your
charism. And today I confirm your call, I support your mission
and I bless your charism. … Christ goes before you, Christ
accompanies you, Christ brings to fulfillment that salvation of
which you are bearers.”
The Pope confirms, supports, and blesses a reality
that is now present in our Parish! Together with all other
ministries, communities, and programs that make our church
so lively, it will contribute to bring ever more people to Christ.
Let us pray for the First Neo-Catechumenal Community that
begins its journey here at Assumption!
Withmyblessing,
Fr.Paolo
