It should lead to an understanding of the mystery being celebrated, serve as a summons to mission, and prepare the assembly for the profession of faith, the universal prayer and the Eucharistic liturgy." — Pope Benedict XVI, Verbum Domini (2010), #59 Conference Aims: • To celebrate the renewal of Catholic preaching since Vatican II, and especially since the promulgation of Fulfilled in Your Hearing 30 years ago • To lift up and engage the formidable ongoing challenges of the ministry of preaching given in Vatican II, Evangelii Nuntiandi, Fulfilled in Your Hearing and Verbum Domini • To reflect on the changed circumstances and new challenges for preaching arising in our increasingly plural context Click Here to view and/or print the conference brochure.
