I am excited that this endeavor, together as the
body of Christ, will bring us spiritual renewal as
missionary disciples. I hope that the words you find
in this letter will challenge us to a sincere and trans-
forming encounter with Jesus in the sacrament of his
body and blood and in the community of the Church
that is his body.
promised you last month a more detailed letter
JL describing the vision for the renewal of ourselves
as well as the renewal of our Diocese. I am happy
to announce that that letter has been sent to your
pastors, and they will be studying it to provide each
parish direction over the coming year. This letter will
also be available to you via the diocesan website at
diocesecc.org/EC2022 and on a thumb drive to be
made available later in January. I invite all of you
individually and as organizations and ministries to
meditate on the document to ensure that by the time
of our great Eucharistic Congress in 2022, our vision
of renewal will have begun to take place throughout
our entire Diocese.

As we celebrate Epiphany, let us turn our hearts to rediscovering Jesus
and the great gift that hwe is to us all! I encourage you once again to spend
time with the daily scripture readings, which will help to renew our com-
mitment to becoming united with and in Christ. May Mary, mother of the
Church, the Church’s perfect model, and the first missionary disciple show
us the way to renew our faith and enflame our hearts with love for her son.
